Preventing Malware from installing on your Mac. Be aware that there are several Malware that attack the Mac OS X computer platform. This malware often masks itself as an Adobe Flash update, a PDF creation app or even an app that will clean your Mac. • Suspicious activity alert #2 - Correct Flash update behavior after you click install is to bring you to Adobe's Flash web page that will show the current version and have a big yellow 'install now' button. Clicking this button starts the download of the installer to your Mac which takes at minimum 10 to 30 seconds - a noticeable delay. My suspicions were alerted because the download was too fast. I quit Safari to go forward with the install. All browsers have to be quit before installing flash player. I checked my finder window and there was no mounted image file in the finder. Adobe updates flash about once a month. Think you have Malware attacking your computer give us a call we will clean it out.
If you have a Flash on your Mac then you can see the version by opening 'System Preferences' and clicking on Flash Preference slect the update link this will show you the current version on your Mac. See Photo 2 The results for me showed that I already had the current version installed. Enjoy Malware free surfing and use of your Mac. MtM
