How to find out if your Mac has the new Virus, and how to fix it ???

Helpful Links Regarding Flashback Trojan
A link to a great User Tip about the trojan: Flashback Trojan User Tip
A related link in the tip to a checker: Malware Checker Dowload Link
A Google search can reveal a variety of alternatives on how the remove the trojan should your computer get infected. This can get you started.
For now I recommend the User Tip from etressoft to detect and remove:

  • HT5228 How to find out if your Mac has the Flashback Trojan EASY WAY!!!!

    http://www.cnn.com/2012/04/06/tech/web/mac-flashback-trojan-check/index.html
    Just did it works great and they also have a post on how to remove it as well.

    Here is an even easier way, it will remove most infections too:

  • Is there any other way to find out if your Mac has a virus?

    I think antivirus software is the only thing that can tell if you've got trojans and harmful files on your computer, and lists them down. But I want to find out if my Mac has viruses without downloading AV software.

    There's no one single method that can be used, as different malware can install in different places.  You have to know what you're looking for.  The folks who make AV software know what they're looking for, so that's the best option.
    However, why do you have this concern?  Do you have a reason to believe your Mac is infected?  If so, what is it?  If not, you can probably relax (though that's far from a guarantee).
    For more information on this topic, see my Mac Malware Guide.

  • How to find out which cube/ods has the code

    hi,
    I want to find out which cube/ods has the start routine/update rules written in it.  Is there a table or Tcode to find out the code instead of opening each cube/ods to find out whether there is code in it or not.
    Thanks,
    Sam

    hi Sam,
    take a look
    /message/3483792#3483792 [original link is broken]
    try RSTRAN, field STARTROUTINE
    related tables
    RSAROUT
    RSAABAP
    RSAABAPINV
    RSAROUTT
    Technical name of start routine
    Re: How to get info about a GP* program?
    Re: Search for start, update rule, etc. that uses infoobject
    if couldnt find out, you can use ST05 'sql trace', open 2 session, one for create start routine, and one for ST05, activate with option 'sql trace', then create start routine and 'deactivate trace' and 'display trace', and check out the tables list
    hope this helps.

  • How to find out if your query uses the indexes?

    How can one tell if the query being issued is using your indexes or doing full table scans?
    Thank you.

    Thank you.
    Ok, let me see if I understand it. So, having an
    index may not speed things up.True
    Full table scans are not bad at all -- as I have it
    in my head. The query I ran before was: select *
    from table1;In that case an index would only slow things down; you are asking it to get all the information from the table - it has to read all of the table ( a full scan).
    >
    So full table scans and index have to do with the db
    block size and the size of the row correct?
    Block size and row size don't have a huge amount to do with it, but they do play a role.
    Let me ask: How does one know the size of a row and
    then the best option for the db blocks? Block size is a global setting (at the tablespace level I think). You would not likely change the block size based on the average row length in any one table. It would be about the last thing you might look at in terms of tuning (though you might consider it up-front if you had a huge amount of very predictable data).
    >
    And if, I create indexes and queries have the where
    clause and the database uses full table scans then
    does it means that either:
    The database believes that the best execution plan is
    to either do FULL SCANS OR USE INDEXES -- ALL UPTO
    THE DATABASE?
    No. There is another piece of information that the database needs to make good decisions. If for example you have a WHERE clause "WHERE not_paid = 1" and you have an index on not_paid. To make a good decision the database needs to know about how many of the rows are likely to be not_paid =1. If it's 90% then a full table scan will be cheaper than looking up the addresses of 90% of the rows and then getting the data. If it's 10% using the index will be cheaper. You need to use Analyze Tables to get the database to store this information. Looks like you need to use a bit of time with the manuals.

  • How can I find out if my mac has a trojan with out third party software?

    I'm trying to find out if my mac has a Trojan on it. I got a pop from a tech support site warning my computer security could be compromised. I did not click any of the links in the site but did call the number. I got very suspisious when they told me the were certified microsoft tech support and told me there was "something band inside my computer". I'm pretty sure they were bogus and just going to try to sell me junk. But after much research I'm very concerned about the ramifications if I do had some kind of Trojan. I have done a bunch of research, most of the content I have found is from 2012/13. Don't want to purchase apps-sounds like there not that great, even ClamXav which can get stuck in a loop as stated on their site. I don't know much about DNS but sounds like it is may the fix. Does anyone know a good source for current info on Trojans and how to detect them. I'm running OSX 10.7.5 and an older iMac.

    See Tech support scam pop-ups.
    ClamXav which can get stuck in a loop as stated on their site.
    That's mostly been fixed for a long time now and can easily be avoided by following the instructions.

  • How to find out web-inf path from the physical drive?

    How to find out web-inf path from the physical drive?
    I have some user profiles in web-inf directory.SO I want to know the path from root directory like
    d:/program files/allaire/jrun/appname/web-inf/profiles/username like that.
    Presently I am able to get the path upto the application directory and from that I am concatinationg web-inf/profiles/username .
    But it is giving problems when it is deployed under unix or linux.Because web-inf there it treats as WEB_INF
    SO I want to get the path of web-inf directory with out hard coding.
    Thanku

    String path = application.getRealPath("/WEB-INF/profiles/username");
    Note sure why you need this, but you don't need the real path to read the file - you can get an InputStream using the relative path. See ServletContext getResource() and getResourceAsStream().

  • How to find out what text encoding has been used in mp3 tag

    Hello
    I have some foreign songs that I am importing into itunes. When a song called "04.公路 塵埃 北合起." gets imported, it comes up in itunes as "04.§Ω∏Ù π–ÆJ •¶X∞"
    Now I don't know a lot about different text encodings, but from what I've read on the forums is that the problem is that the tags that are encoded on the srcfiles are not unicode. I have tried the java application "UnicodeRewriter" recommended elsewhere in the forums, but both the commone Chinese ecodings, viz Big5 GBK etc.
    Is there a way to cut a world from (eg a chinese glyph) and somehow find out what text encouding has been used?

    Sorry, that question wasn't very well phrased. I'll try it again.

I have tried the java application "UnicodeRewriter" recommended elsewhere in the forums, but whatever I sent the source encoding to, eg Big5, GBK, or one of about 9 others, I just get different types of garbage coming through.
    Is there a way I could take the original glyph in the file name (which shows up correctly on my desktop) and paste it into some sort of table. That table will then show me how that glyph will look in all different encodings without the correct conversion. So if I can match my "公" to my "§" I'll be able to see what the src encoding is.
    I know this is a longshot, but any help appreciated.
    Sorry for the rather rubbish explanation earlier.
