Does anyone know why a web page would suddenly pop up telling me I have a computer virus and need to call them? When I've called they said they needed access to my computer in order to fix the problem - which I didn't do. Is this legit? An Ad?
That is not legit, it is a scam to gain access to your computer and information.
You can protect against pop-up adware with the AdwareMedic tool Thomas Reed has http://www.thesafemac.com Tom is a major contributor on these communities and great security guy. -
Received a notice saying my computer is infected, wants to install MacProtector.mpkg. Is this legit?
It's a varient of the MacDefender antivirus scam.
For those infected with the MACDefender malware, the following steps are recommended:
1. Open Applications > Utilities > Activity Monitor and quit any processes linked to MACDefender.
2. Delete MACDefender from the Applications folder.
3. Check System Preferences > Accounts > Login Items for suspicious entries
4. Run a Spotlight search for "MACDefender" to check for any associated files that might still be lingering.
Change all the names above to MacProtector.

I keep getting a pop up to clean up my computer its a MacKeeper 911 for your Mac is this legit?
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
It's not legit > https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3691
Don't install that application. We have seen cases where MacKeeper damaged Mac OS X and deleted important data. Also, Mac OS X doesn't need this type of apps.
Try to remove cookies from your Mac. Open Safari, go to Safari menu (on the menu bar) > Preferences > Privacy, and select the option to delete all websites data -
How can I remove the spottiness in this leg?
This leg has irregular dark spots all over and the model wants me to offer her a more uniformly toned image. What is the best way to do this taking into account the natural horizontal gradient ?
Thanks!
JuanSuppose you mean the vertical gradient?
Just tried it and used the following:
In Quick mask mode I made a brushstroke (broad and soft) along the left side of the shadow part and thwn quit Quick mask mode, inverted the selection and used a Gaussion blur of 3.5
Did the same two more times, every time left from the former stroke.
Finally used the Stamp tool for the last bits (again, latge and soft), in this case with an opacity of 50%.
This all was done very very quick and dirty but it might give you an idea. -

What is the recommended security software for MacPro? I am getting popups, including offer to sell Mac Sheild. Is this legit?
No, it is not legit, it's a scam. Avoid such popups and DO NOT under any circumstances fall for any claims that your system has been infected by viruses and download any of this "scareware". See:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4650
For additional information, see also:
http://www.reedcorner.net/news.php/?p=138
http://www.reedcorner.net/guides/macvirus/
If you do a forum search on Mac Defender, Mac Protector or Apple Security Center (this fake has a lot of different names) you will also find a lot of threads about this.
The most recommended "security software" is "none", beyond common sense and normal caution. If you do, however, decide you wish to run antivirus software, I think that the donationware clamXav should be more than enough provided you remember to scan your system from time to time. iAntivirus has also been recommended by others, though I have no personal experience with it.
If you are running Windows on your system, either via BootCamp, Parallels Workstation or another solution, then that copy of Windows is subject to all the myriad exploits common to the Windows world, so you need to take full precautions, including running both antivirus and antispyware software.

They asked for my Serial Number. ? Is this legit?
I ordered a new video card for my Imac24 and welovemacs said they needed my SN# or their distributor would not release the part. Is this legit? Sounds kinda fishy to me.
Thanks,
ZDid you ask welovemacs why their distributor requires a serial? All I can think of is that the vendor wants the serial to verify that they ship the correct part.
As to private data, there's probably little danger in releasing the serial. I can't think of any personal data that anyone outside of Apple could access with the S/N other than when your warranty will expire. So it's probably save to give it to the vendor.

when i want to download firefox, it gets downloaded from a different site everytime. Is this legit?
For example: a box from Norton Antivirus will pop up to ask me if I want to download firefox from ______ . The line will be filled with a different site everytime (this is one site: saimei.acc.umu.se). Can I trust this?Yes as there is not one server but several mirrors around the help load balance the releases.mozilla.org
http://www.mozilla.org/community/mirrors.html
Many of the mirrors are Universities and also help host for other open source stuff like various Linux distros.
The one you link to is a University in Sweden.
