Does anybody have any experience with keyloggers and a good program to detect one on your mac? I think I may have one.

So yesterday I found out that my email address password had been changed. I don't remember doing this, but it is possible I changed it a while back and considering I keep my email constantly logged in. But at the same time, two of my apps were trying to access their "store". I play a game called League of Legends, which has an online store, and it randomly came up with the message "Could not connect to Maestro" (credit card). Then, Itunes (which I rarely use) came up with "sorry, we could not continue with your purchase". I think it's very strange that all of this happened at the same time, but hopefully it's a case of a forgotten password and two games bugging/crashing. I scanned my entire computer with iantivirus and it hasn't found anything, but I've heard keyloggers can be a bit hard to detect. Does anybody have any experience with keyloggers and if so, what program did you use to detect and destroy it?

If you think that a keylogger has been installed the only safe thing you can do is erase your drive and reinstall.
I don't think that is the case however.

    Do I need to run and anti virus program with MAC OSX Lion? Have heard different opinions!
    You will continue to hear different opinions here, where thoughts range everywhere between "anti-virus software is the evil spawn of Satan" to "anyone not running anti-virus software is a fool."
    Truth is, this is still a very personal decision on a Mac. Depending on circumstances, it is still very easily possible to stay safe without using anti-virus software, but circumstances and personal preferences vary widely. Besides which, anti-virus software cannot even remotely provide you a guarantee of protection!
    To learn how to stay safe (with or without anti-virus software), and how to decide whether to use anti-virus software, see my Mac Malware Guide.

  • Anybody have any experience with JPad Pro ?

    I have just now downloaded JPad Pro version 5.0 from the web site www.modelworks.com
    Does anybody have any experience with JPad Pro? I would appreciate if people who have worked using JPad pro give me thier opinions about it.
    Thanks.
    Vijay

    I have never used it...I find jEdit to be valuable to me...mainly for the syntax highlighting..
    My first 2 yrs' coding was spent with "notepad" and or "vi" (text editors) and command line javac...
    I am of two minds as to whether to recommend this approach for everyone...I feel closer to the code I write in a notepad...but often times I missed things like "boolian" instead of "boolean" ... things that syntax highlighting assist you with... and unclosed brackets...which when you use an editor like jEdit (or I imagine jPad pro) you can catch easier, due to the auto-indentation.. Searching for these bugs teaches you little other than to be careful while typing :-)
    I still run "javac" from the command line ... I think jEdit has a way for me to call it from the GUI..but I've never used it.
    If it feels right to you..it is not wrong...the only thing I will NEVER use is a code-writing abomination... some people (even advanced users, and I will not say that they are pansies) use them.. In anything but expert hands, they are catastrophically dangerous.
    The risk for code-writing IDEs is that you didn't write it, and there is an extra (un-needeed) level of abstraction from the code, one more level of complexity, that is a blockade to truly understanding the code and improving/maintaining it....

  • I have paid and downloaded LION and want to update my IMAC, can i just run install and it keep photos settings etc from Snow Leopard or is a full reinstall with wiped hard drive, anyone have any experience of this and do i need to run a backup beforehand?

    Always backup your important data before upgrading to a new Mac OS X.
    Lion doesn't erase the drive but better to be safe than sorry.
    And run Disk Utility  (Applications/Utilities). Verify and if necessary repair the startup disk before upgrading.
    Using Disk Utility to verify or repair disks

    Question

    Hmmm, Norton extensions are broken again in Firefox 4.0.1. It seems that Norton didn't allow for Firefox 4.0 security updates when they updated their Firefox extension for Firefox 4.0. Norton says they'll have a fix in two weeks. A Norton user posted a fix in this forum thread.

    1) Without connecting your iPad to your laptop, start iTunes. Click on Edit. Click on Preferences. Click on Devices. Check the box next to "Prevent your iPod etc. from automatically syncing." Click OK.
    2) connect your iPad to your laptop and start iTunes.
    3) When iTunes starts, right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select Transfer purchases etc.
    4) After it finishes transferring all your apps to your new laptop, right click on your iPad and select Backup your iPad.
    5) After it finish backing up your iPad, right click on your iPad and select Restore etc.
    6) After it finishes restoring, left click on your iPad , then click on the Apps tab on top, and check the box next to Sync Apps, then click on Apply below.
    If everything on your iPad looks good after the sync, go back and click on Edit / Preferences / Devices and UN-check the box next to Prevent your iPod etc. The only other thing you may want to check is if your contacts, bookmarks, etc. are syncing correctly now. If not, go to the Info tab after connecting and make sure you indicate which features you want to sync with what sources.

  • Does anybody know any software for creating and reading PDF-417 to be integrated in my vi?

    Hi, I want to generate PDF-417 from mi vi. After that I want to scan a PDF-417 with a scanner and I want to decode it. Does anybody know any solution to integrate with LabView?
    Thanks.

    Antonio,
    I don't know much about the PDF 417 however there are some examples on NI's site about generating barcodes in LabVIEW.
    How Do I Generate a Barcode in LabVIEW?
    In addition you can use the IMAQ software etc to read in barcodes if you don't have a scanner. If you do have a scanner then I imagine it has software and some sort of interace that you could use LabVIEW to read data. It may even have a serial connection and you could use all the VISA Serial VIs in LabVIEW to get the data.

  • I'm trying to open a 'mv' file.  I found a program called Flip4mac WMV Player Pro.  Does anyone have any experience with this or have another suggestion?

    I am trying open 'mv' files.  I found a program called Flip4mac MWV Player Pro.  Does anyone have experience with this or is there a different way to open these type of files?

    It works quite well, but is only useful for playing .wmv files such as those made on older PCs. MPlayer 1.0 rc2 is a free utility that should also play .wmv files.

  • Anybody has any problems with installing and printing with canon lbp6650dn?

    hi,
    i bought a new i-sensys lbp6650dn and i am trying to make it work with my macbook 10.5.8. the installation cd that comes with it does not work with mac. i downloaded the latest drivers from canon's website, and could add the printer to my list.
    computer's connected to the printer with USB. both the computer and the printer show no error, but whenever i try to print a document it starts printing jumbld letters and numbers that look like programme codes. moreover, it prints around 20 pages for a 1-page document. does anybody know what the problem might be? i am not sure whether there is something wrong with the computer's settings or the printer's. it's the first time installing a printer is giving me such a hard time. any help would be much appreciated.
    thanks!

    Try reseating your memory. Sometimes this occurs when the RAM is not seated all the way in the slot.
    You could also boot from your 1st install disk while holding down the D key. Then run the diagnostics on your MacBook.

  • Anyone have any luck with steam and wine

    im trying to get any steam to work with wine and so far i've had no luck. 
    i have a 512 ATI RADEON X1600 graphics card and im using the open source ati driver.
    have had some success with counterstrike 1.6.  I start a game (local) but it is extremely choppy/laggy. 
    does anyone have any pointers on how to get it to run more smoothly?

    I don't know how well the open source drivers are going to handle games, catalyst may work better but you will have to use the legacy driver (here) for an X1600, and it doesn't work with the most recent kernel.

  • Any Experiences with OODBMS and WLS (also Javlin or VEJB)

    Hi guys,
    we are evaluating WLS in combination with OODBMS and RDBMS. Has anybody
    done this before and want to give us some hints on it. We take a look at
    Versant and Object Store versus Oracle 8i. We have to build a high
    traffic site with approx. 1000 hits/sec. We intend to modell the
    business logic in the EJB Modell. We have to present product-infos, news
    etc from a database. There are to pretty new containers out there :
    Javlin and VEJB(Versant). Has anybody experience with these products ?
    As I learn from this newsgroup there seem to be some performance
    problems regarding Entity Beans. I would like to know if this problems
    occur with OODBMS or RDBMS or both. Is the Container the bottlenack or
    the database ? It seems that from the performance point of view
    stateless Session Beans with pooled jdbc-Connections are the best
    solution. Is this right. Has anybody put in Java-Instances right in an
    OODBMS without involving a container ? What experiences have you made ?
    Thanks for your help
    regards Oliver

    Oliver,
    I suggest contacting the ODI or Versant folks. They can provide a wealth of
    benchmarks that explain why they're up there in performance with RDBMSes.

  • Any experience with Paralles and Windows XP Pro? Advise?

    I am new in Mac world. I understand Parallels software will let you install windows on a HD partition.
    Any suggestions to make this process as expedite as possible?
    How big is the partition required?
    Is it possible install windows based aplications on that partition? software?

    I have a core 2 Duo (3.33) iMac with 8GB and run Parallels 7 with a Windows 7 operating system. I use it for surfing the web and Microsoft business applications. I find no problem with heat and speed. For everything else, I use OSX.
    I was using the same product/operating system on a MacBook Pro (2005) Core 2 Duo with 8GB of RAM and had no difficuties either.
    THe problem with Bootcamp is you have to reboot your machine to switch between OSX and Windows. That was a killer for me. In addtion, with Parallels, you can drag files accross platforms if necessary.
    I haven't tried Fusion. You can download a trail of Parallels and see how you like it before you commit to a purchase. There are online sales from time to time and you can buy the product for less than $40.00.
