[QUOTE="cyanide54, post: 1025350, member: 148982"] Hello, i have had my macbook pro for about a year and a half now, and up to this point i have had very few problems, but now, ever since i just restarted my mac one day, I have been getting the loading pinwheel at random times, even on the user selection screen after boot. im thinking this may be a virus considering i downloaded a couple of programs the other day, but once i get logged in, i can barely do anything. certain applications make the os very slow and others make it ok but still not great. if i do things slowly, it seems to work ok then goes unresponsive again. even when i try going over the dock it sometimes freezes where my mouse last was and that part of the dock stays enlarged. any help is appreciated, Im not the total mac-wiz so if there is some kind of anti: malware, virus or spyware program that is prefferably free, any word of that would be great. thanks for any help p.s. if its in the wrong section, tell me.
