[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1007852"] Macnoob5: 1. There is no hacker. Nothing you reported is in any way out of the ordinary. For example, "mdworker" is SPOTLIGHT. It's not stalking you, its trying to index all those files you keep altering. 2. You don't need a software firewall. At all. You don't need "secure virtual memory" and you *absolutely* don't need Filevault. 3. With this level of paranoia, and assuming you're not on some kind of medication, I'm going to suggest you go back to Windows where at least this irrational fear is justified. :) 4. Finally, you've had a simple, thorough solution that will solve your imaginary "problems" posted to you at least three times. That you haven't done it says a lot about you, but nothing good. [/QUOTE]
