I recently found out from my ISP that my PC has malware on it, called "ramnit." From what I have read online about it, it spreads through files and USBs. I have recently transferred files over from this PC to my Mac with a USB, and wanted to ask whether it is possible that the I got malware on the mac from it? And if so, what should I do to check for it.
I am on the most recent version of Mac OS.
 
Run both Malwarebytes and Etrecheck.

It's not likely that you transferred any malware to the Mac but it's a good idea to check.

I have done both things and nothing came up so I guess I'm fine, thanks for the suggestion!
