[QUOTE="NSMacGuru, post: 1840040, member: 402209"] While we have you here - do you need Flash? It's blocked by default on Safari, Chrome... not sure about Firefox, etc. It's inherently insecure. And as you've seen, it's now a key vehicle for tricking Mac users into installing malware. Unless you absolutely need it, I'd strongly suggest [URL="https://appletoolbox.com/reasons-to-uninstall-flash-from-your-mac-how-to/"]uninstalling it completely[/URL]. I did so years ago, and can't remember the last time it was actually needed (most sites now default to HTML5 instead). M [/QUOTE]
