[QUOTE="rapp, post: 1648604, member: 319680"] I have a MacBook Pro running OS-X 10.10.2 with the latest security update. I am also running Parallels running Windows 8.1. I downloaded a message from a Beth Svetich purporting to be from the USPS. It told me to download an attachment and print a label to take to the PO to get a package. Now, since I've been expecting a package and haven't received it and know that sometimes UPS leaves packages at the PO, I downloaded and ran the stupid thing. I am normally not that stupid. Honest. However, I did it. I am pretty certain the thing is a Windows Virus and that I've been infected. How do I get rid of it or don't I need to? I have shut off Parallels, so maybe I don't have to. Thanks. -- Larry [/QUOTE]
