JS:Psyme removal help me!

Can anyone tell me how to remove JS:Psyme trojan infection? Or where can I get the information? Thanks

You are not infected with that trojan, unless you're running Windows. It's Windows malware.
If you have it at all, it's attached to an email message or contained in some garbage you downloaded from a torrent. Delete it in either case. Don't delete mail in any way except through your mail client.

JS: Psyme-AK help! (IMAC Avast infection)

Hi,
I was using Safari on my imac a few months ago- and I have a habit of resetting my safari every time i finish using it and when i reset it avast (avast! antivirus) had a pop-up saying that an infection was detected. it's called JS:Psyme-AK[Trj]. it was the cache file of the Safari so i pulled it in my trash and was thinking of secure emptying my trash but on second thought i pulled it in avast for the scanning and click delete from the avast app. Does this guarantee that the infection is being removed from my imac completely already? Is there anything i can or need to do?
And what exactly is this virus gonna do to my computer? Is it harmful for macs? or is it only targeted for Windows meaning I'm not at risk for anything? I know some viruses are only harmful for pcs so I wanted to know if I'm still at risk or not deleting it correctly or if I have to do anything.. I'm a total newbie here so please bear with me and explain if you can what I need to do. I just want to make sure that what I did will keep my computer virus free... and I don't want my computer to still have the virus "hidden" somewhere.. as I like to use my computer to purchase online, and it's a really uncomfortable feeling to have feeling like this trojan might be spying on my computer or something.
thanks in advance!
Oh and, I was wondering, can the mac inspector software the mac geniuses run at the app store for maintence check detect if my computer has a virus or if whatever I had damaged my computer?
I've attached a screen cap for your reference about the infection.

1. This comment applies to malicious software ("malware") that's installed unwittingly by the victim of a network attack. It does not apply to software, such as keystroke loggers, that may be installed deliberately by an intruder who has hands-on access to the victim's computer. That threat is in a different category, and there's no easy way to defend against it. If you have reason to suspect that you're the target of such an attack, you need expert help.
If you find this comment too long or too technical, read only sections 5, 6, and 10.
OS X now implements three layers of built-in protection specifically against malware, not counting runtime protections such as execute disable, sandboxing, system library randomization, and address space layout randomization that may also guard against other kinds of exploits.
2. All versions of OS X since 10.6.7 have been able to detect known Mac malware in downloaded files, and to block insecure web plugins. This feature is transparent to the user, but internally Apple calls it "XProtect." The malware recognition database is automatically checked for updates once a day; however, you shouldn't rely on it, because the attackers are always at least a day ahead of the defenders.
The following caveats apply to XProtect:
It can be bypassed by some third-party networking software, such as BitTorrent clients and Java applets.
It only applies to software downloaded from the network. Software installed from a CD or other media is not checked.
3. Starting with OS X 10.7.5, there has been a second layer of built-in malware protection, designated "Gatekeeper" by Apple. By default, applications and Installer packages downloaded from the network will only run if they're digitally signed by a developer with a certificate issued by Apple. Software certified in this way hasn't necessarily been tested by Apple, but you can be reasonably sure that it hasn't been modified by anyone other than the developer. His identity is known to Apple, so he could be held legally responsible if he distributed malware. That may not mean much if the developer lives in a country with a weak legal system (see below.)
Gatekeeper doesn't depend on a database of known malware. It has, however, the same limitations as XProtect, and in addition the following:
It can easily be disabled or overridden by the user.
A malware attacker could get control of a code-signing certificate under false pretenses, or could simply ignore the consequences of distributing codesigned malware.
An App Store developer could find a way to bypass Apple's oversight, or the oversight could fail due to human error.
For the reasons given above, App Store products, and other applications recognized by Gatekeeper as signed, are safer than others, but they can't be considered absolutely safe. "Sandboxed" applications may prompt for access to private data, such as your contacts, or for access to the network. Think before granting that access. OS X security is based on user input. Never click through any request for authorization without thinking.
4. Starting with OS X 10.8.3, a third layer of protection has been added: a "Malware Removal Tool" (MRT). MRT runs automatically in the background when you update the OS. It checks for, and removes, malware that may have evaded the other protections via a Java exploit (see below.) MRT also runs when you install or update the Apple-supplied Java runtime (but not the Oracle runtime.) Like XProtect, MRT is presumably effective against known attacks, but maybe not against unknown attacks. It notifies you if it finds malware, but otherwise there's no user interface to MRT.
5. XProtect, Gatekeeper, and MRT reduce the risk of malware attack, but they're not absolute protection. The first and best line of defense is always your own intelligence. With the possible exception of Java exploits, all known malware circulating on the Internet that affects a fully-updated installation of OS X 10.6 or later takes the form of so-called "trojan horses," which can only have an effect if the victim is duped into running them. The threat therefore amounts to a battle of wits between you and the malware attacker. If you're smarter than he thinks you are, you'll win.
That means, in practice, that you never use software that comes from an untrustworthy source, or that does something inherently untrustworthy. How do you know what is trustworthy?
Any website that prompts you to install a “codec,” “plug-in,” "player," "extractor," or “certificate” that comes from that same site, or an unknown one, is untrustworthy.
A web operator who tells you that you have a “virus,” or that anything else is wrong with your computer, or that you have won a prize in a contest you never entered, is trying to commit a crime with you as the victim. (Some reputable websites did legitimately warn visitors who were infected with the "DNSChanger" malware. That exception to this rule no longer applies.)
Pirated copies or "cracks" of commercial software, no matter where they come from, are unsafe.
Software of any kind downloaded from a BitTorrent or from a Usenet binary newsgroup is unsafe.
Software that purports to help you do something that's illegal or that infringes copyright, such as saving streamed audio or video for reuse without permission, is unsafe. All YouTube "downloaders" are in this category, though not all are necessarily harmful.
Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, must be downloaded directly from the developer’s website. If it comes from any other source, it's unsafe.
Even signed applications, no matter what the source, should not be trusted if they do something unexpected, such as asking for permission to access your contacts, your location, or the Internet for no obvious reason.
6. Java on the Web (not to be confused with JavaScript, to which it's not related, despite the similarity of the names) is a weak point in the security of any system. Java is, among other things, a platform for running complex applications in a web page, on the client. That was always a bad idea, and Java's developers have proven themselves incapable of implementing it without also creating a portal for malware to enter. Past Java exploits are the closest thing there has ever been to a Windows-style virus affecting OS X. Merely loading a page with malicious Java content could be harmful.
Fortunately, client-side Java on the Web is obsolete and mostly extinct. Only a few outmoded sites still use it. Try to hasten the process of extinction by avoiding those sites, if you have a choice. Forget about playing games or other non-essential uses of Java.
Java is not included in OS X 10.7 and later. Discrete Java installers are distributed by Apple and by Oracle (the developer of Java.) Don't use either one unless you need it. Most people don't. If Java is installed, disable it — not JavaScript — in your browsers.
Regardless of version, experience has shown that Java on the Web can't be trusted. If you must use a Java applet for a task on a specific site, enable Java only for that site in Safari. Never enable Java for a public website that carries third-party advertising. Use it only on well-known, login-protected, secure websites without ads. In Safari 6 or later, you'll see a lock icon in the address bar with the abbreviation "https" when visiting a secure site.
Follow the above guidelines, and you’ll be as safe from malware as you can practically be. The rest of this comment concerns what you should not do to protect yourself from malware.
7. Never install any commercial "anti-virus" or "Internet security" products for the Mac, as they all do more harm than good, if they do any good at all. Any database of known threats is always going to be out of date. Most of the danger is from unknown threats. If you need to be able to detect Windows malware in your files, use one of the free anti-virus products in the Mac App Store — nothing else.
Why shouldn't you use commercial "anti-virus" products?
Their design is predicated on the nonexistent threat that malware may be injected at any time, anywhere in the file system. Malware is downloaded from the network; it doesn't materialize from nowhere.
In order to meet that nonexistent threat, the software modifies or duplicates low-level functions of the operating system, which is a waste of resources and a common cause of instability, bugs, and poor performance.
By modifying the operating system, the software itself may create weaknesses that could be exploited by malware attackers.
8. An anti-malware product from the App Store, such as "ClamXav," doesn't have these drawbacks. That doesn't mean it's entirely safe. It may report email messages that have "phishing" links in the body, or Windows malware in attachments, as infected files, and offer to delete or move them. Doing so will corrupt the Mail database. The messages should be deleted from within the Mail application.
An anti-virus app is not needed, and should not be relied upon, for protection against OS X malware. It's useful only for detecting Windows malware. Windows malware can't harm you directly (unless, of course, you use Windows.) Just don't pass it on to anyone else.
A Windows malware attachment in email is usually easy to recognize. The file name will often be targeted at people who aren't very bright; for example:
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥!!!!!!!H0TBABEZ4U!!!!!!!.AVI♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.exe
Anti-virus software may be able to tell you which particular virus or trojan it is, but do you care? In practice, there's seldom a reason to use the software unless a network administrator requires you to do it.
The ClamXav developer won't try to "upsell" you to a paid version of the product. Other developers may do that. Don't be upsold. For one thing, you should not pay to protect Windows users from the consequences of their choice of computing platform. For another, a paid upgrade from a free app will probably have the disadvantages mentioned in section 7.
9. It seems to be a common belief that the built-in Application Firewall acts as a barrier to infection, or prevents malware from functioning. It does neither. It blocks inbound connections to certain network services you're running, such as file sharing. It's disabled by default and you should leave it that way if you're behind a router on a private home or office network. Activate it only when you're on an untrusted network, for instance a public Wi-Fi hotspot, where you don't want to provide services. Disable any services you don't use in the Sharing preference pane. All are disabled by default.
10. As a Mac user you don't have to live in fear that your computer is going to be infected every time you install an application, read email, or visit a web page. But neither should you have the false idea that you will always be safe, no matter what you do. The greatest harm done by security software is precisely its selling point: it makes people feel safe. They may then feel safe enough to take risks from which the software doesn't protect them. Nothing can lessen the need for safe computing practices.

I have an older iMAC that once burned CD's with no issues. Now I get an error message saying "The attempt to burn a disc failed. The device is not accessible, probably because it was removed". I have never had it touched so the device was not removed.Help

I have an olde iMac that once I have an older iMAC that once burned CD's with no issues. Now I get an error message saying "The attempt to burn a disc failed. The device is not accessible, probably because it was removed". I have never had it touched so the device was not removed. Please advise as to what could be the problem. How to fix. Thanks

Try resetting the SMC and PRAM first, if that doesn't help try a cleaning disc.....and then buy an inexpensive external burner. Slimline super drive failures are all too common.
To reset the SMC
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord.
Wait fifteen seconds.
Attach the computer's power cord.
Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard Text Box Enter Space is Removed -- Help

Got a new computer at work with Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard and it is taking some getting use to (came from Acrobat 7 Professional).
I need some help with the text box tool. When I create a text box and use the enter key and click out of the text box the space is removed where I hit enter. I googled around and if I use cntrl and then hit enter the space will stay there. How do I get around this so I do not have to hold cntrl everytime. Plus if I go back into that text box and add another space it removes the space from before so I would have to add the spaces in again. I hope this is a setting I have messed up. It is quite annoying and hopefully someone can help me out.
I am on Windows 7 Professional if it matters.

I've reported this as a bug a number of times since Acrobat 9 was released and so far they have refused to fix it in Acrobat 9/10/11. I had never heard of the Ctrl+Enter workaround, so thanks for that.

Processor removal help: G5 liquid cooled

I am looking for some help on removing the heat sync/ processor on a dual 2.5 with the liquid cooled unit.
The 8 CPU Heatsink Allen screws 2.5 mm. that sit in the "Lagshields" are loosened, but the CPU unit still is being held down by more fasteners?
Which other fasteners ( the torx screws?) need loosening to be able to lift the CPU unit free of the board ?
Has anybody done this that can remember the procedure.
Any help is appreciated !! -john

Thanks to all who provided help on this. I did in the end get a copy of the Service Source for the model I was working on (a late 2004 2.5 dual LCS Heat Sink model) which made all the difference. This document is essential. Thanks to a discussion user who had a copy! In my case I needed to replace a blown PSU (not an overly difficult task for anyone who is proficient in removing and replacing components)
While I understand the logic for Apple to not make this document too readily available I disagree with this strategy. There is nothing overly technical in this document and in the end people will be lead down the wrong pathe (and do more damage) if they cannot get good info. In my case I found all kinds of miss-leading info about how to pull the processor unit for my machine. Some said remove all the screws, others said just 4 screws (in fact there are 8) Some said don't do it it is complicated, others said it is no more difficult than an air cooled unit. Oddly Apple's site only showed the Service Source document for the earlier air cooled models, which is only helpful to a certain degree.
My point is that too keep things a mystery by not allowing good info to be had causes more harm. Maybe that's the intention ? Anyway I am big fan of Open Source, collaborative sharing of ideas etc. So forums like this are a big help.
Thanks again to all !!

Removing help icon from LoginProvider

I am new to Sun Portal Server 7.1 Update 1, and am looking for a way to remove the 'help' icon from the LoginProvider for the devauthlessanonymous user. I am making use of the Developer's Sample portal that comes bundled with the product, and want to eliminate all icons that appear in providers/containers/channels.
Within PSConsole, for the have updated the helpURL property to be "" instead of the default en/desktop/login.htm, per the Portal Server 7.1 Technical Reference guide. After doing so, the icon remains but instead directs the user to login to the web server doc root (e.g. /porta/docs).
Are there any other parent provider/container/channel helpURL fields that I need to update as well, or do I need to enter a different value for the helpURL field in the LoginProvider for the devauthlessanonymous user?
Thanks.

are you building a custom one? Couldn't understand what text you have around it. I dont have anything in my portal (default one).

Remove Help Icon

Hi,
I am customizing the TopBar View and I was wondering how you would remove the help icon?? I want to keep the link but not have the image.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Satish,
What I usually do is check the element in the browser's developer tools - for e.g. Chrome's "Inspect Element". This way I can identify the id of the element in the ADF Faces source file (.jsff).
In the folderViewer case the element id was "cilhelp" and the tag in the .jsff is below
<af:commandImageLink rendered="#{o_w_doclib_UIUtils.inSpaces}"
                                   partialSubmit="true"
                                   icon="/adf/webcenter/helptopics_ena.png"

              </af:commandImageLink>Also, I have all the webcenter jars (from JDeveloper) extracted into a folder. This way I can quickly do a text search to find the file that I need and makes it easier to find the file in the customization project.

Adware removal help please

Hi,
I was downloading Skype for mac last night, and now my safari isn't working correctly (has a lot of popups and and words are hyperlinked on my webpages I pull up now. I think I have the 'DownLite' trojan but I am unsure of how to get rid of it. I saw a post in March that Linc helped with describing how to fix it, but unfortunately, it didn't work for me (because I think mine is in a different folder but am unsure how to find it). I have the UNIX shell script diagnostic scan if needed. Can anyone help me get rid of this?? Thank you for your help!

Helpful Links Regarding Malware Problems
If you are having an immediate problem with ads popping up see The Safe Mac » Adware Removal Guide and AdwareMedic.
Open Safari, select Preferences from the Safari menu. Click on Extensions icon in the toolbar. Disable all Extensions. If this stops your problem, then re-enable them one by one until the problem returns. Now remove that extension as it is causing the problem.
The following comes from user stevejobsfan0123. I have made minor changes to adapt to this presentation.
Fix Some Browser Pop-ups That Take Over Safari.
Common pop-ups include a message saying the government has seized your computer and you must pay to have it released (often called "Moneypak"), or a phony message saying that your computer has been infected, and you need to call a tech support number (sometimes claiming to be Apple) to get it resolved. First, understand that these pop-ups are not caused by a virus and your computer has not been affected. This "hijack" is limited to your web browser. Also understand that these messages are scams, so do not pay any money, call the listed number, or provide any personal information. This article will outline the solution to dismiss the pop-up.
Quit Safari
Usually, these pop-ups will not go away by either clicking "OK" or "Cancel." Furthermore, several menus in the menu bar may become disabled and show in gray, including the option to quit Safari. You will likely have to force quit Safari. To do this, press Command + option + esc, select Safari, and press Force Quit.
Relaunch Safari
If you relaunch Safari, the page will reopen. To prevent this from happening, hold down the 'Shift' key while opening Safari. This will prevent windows from the last time Safari was running from reopening.
This will not work in all cases. The shift key must be held at the right time, and in some cases, even if done correctly, the window reappears. In these circumstances, after force quitting Safari, turn off Wi-Fi or disconnect Ethernet, depending on how you connect to the Internet. Then relaunch Safari normally. It will try to reload the malicious webpage, but without a connection, it won't be able to. Navigate away from that page by entering a different URL, i.e. www.apple.com, and trying to load it. Now you can reconnect to the Internet, and the page you entered will appear rather than the malicious one.

From user Joe Bailey comes this equally useful advice:
The facts are:
1. There is no anti-malware software that can detect 100% of the malware out there.
2. There is no anti-malware that can detect everything targeting the Mac.
3. The very best way to prevent the most attacks is for you as the user to be aware that
     the most successful malware attacks rely on very sophisticated social engineering
     techniques preying on human avarice, ****, and fear.
4. Internet popups saying the FBI, NSA, Microsoft, your ISP has detected malware on
    your computer is intended to entice you to install their malware thinking it is a
    protection against malware.
5. Some of the anti-malware products on the market are worse than the malware
    from which they purport to protect you.
6. Be cautious where you go on the internet.
7. Only download anything from sites you know are safe.
8. Avoid links you receive in email, always be suspicious even if you get something
    you think is from a friend, but you were not expecting.
9. If there is any question in your mind, then assume it is malware.

Flash Player won't work following malware removal - help!

I removed some malware using malwarebytes, which I thought was the end of my problem, but in fact it has opened up a bigger one, in that Flash Player has stopped working. I've tried uninstalling and re-installing - now have version 10.2.153.1 - but no success. Kids didn't mind when they couldn't access their online homework; not so happy now they can't play their games either. I've looked at other discussions for a solution, but nothing quite fits this problem. Any help gratefully accepted.
I can follow instructions but I'm not techie, so any replies need to be idiot-friendly, thanks.

Have just spotted your post about the "kill-bit" http://forums.adobe.com/message/3432049#3432049 - sounds remakably like my problem so will check it out when I get home this evening. Just one question though - is there any point in first trying to do a system restore to a point prior to the malware removal, or would I be wasting my time?

Duplicated Flash and Adobe Reader Files cannot be removed -- Help!

I've just had the pleasure of reloading my XP home OS. A backup file was created. Now that all has been restored I cannot remove the CMAP folder and contents as well as the Flash folder and contents from the back-up folder...I've downloaded the Adobe removal tool, but it only works on installed versions...this is a copy or backup. I've contacted the Adobe Chat folks and been told to caugh up a fee...not happening
Following a thread earlier posted, I attempted to follow the long list of steps published by Adobe to claim ownership of the files, and change security settings, and then remove the duplicated files. The problem is, the "tabs" refered to do not exist as options when starting the process by right clicking on 'Properties'.
Can anyone lend a hand?? Many thanks in advance!

Adobe marks key files as their own, preventing moving, erasing, etc. XP Home does not offer the security tab feature to take ownership of the files, and then deal with them
After some serious efforts, I have now removed the duplicated files, and made sure my installation of XP Home has the necessary security tab features to see all files, and take ownership of those that have been placed by a provider wanting to insure as much security as possible.
Hopefully, this brief overview of the solution will be of help to someone.
