I just received my new MacBook Pro a few days ago too. I hear constantly that with Macs there are no viruses out there that affect them.. but I have also read differently on other help forums. Esp about Malware. And some people were saying that they felt their Mac was acting differently after being affected from this bad email. Anyway, so I clicked on the link in the email that said 'See order details' on a graphic button. It then went to a new web page that was white. It had some rugged description and code that said 'file to big to open' or 'details of order to big' or something weird like that.I closed it immediately and deleted the email. But has there been damage done?--And my question is did it affect my Hotmail account separately? Even if nothing got 'through' to my computer, is my email account compromised?? Or does it have to first be on a computer to infect email? Oh this is confusing.So since the computer I have is So new still, and this is stressing me out, I have already ordered a new one and will be returning this one.I am guessing that anything that may or not may be on this computer will be gone with the new one of course.But could my email be affected and hurt my new computer??I really know nothing about computers regarding this type of thing and have always used PC and let the antivirius software I was using take care of anything. So this is really stressing me out. Especially since it is possibly affecting a brand new computer and possibly two. :/Any advice for peace of mind would be so appreciated.(I realise I wrote this in another forum or thread but saw that this was probably the correct one and could not delete the first)</blockquote>
