Hi everyone,
This morning I see my computer was on in sleep mode. I was surprised because I could have sworn I turned it off for the night. Okay, perhaps my iMac did not turn off. But then I found two Flash Plugins on my iMac's desktop that I do not recall downloading. I ejected them and ran a malwarebytes scan after updating it, and did not find any problems. Just wondering if anyone else ran into a situation like this and if I should be concerned whether nor not my computer was hacked. I know I'm probably over reacting.
Yesterday I did spend a few hours burning DVD backups of my files, but I doubt that has anything to do with it.
Is there anything else I should do in order to make sure my computer is not being threatened? I have the firewall on.

Thanks for your help.
