How is a person supposed to know how to handle such things, or whether to handle them at all?įirst and foremost, it’s important to follow one primary rule when your anti-virus software detects malware on a Mac: do nothing! At least, not right away.

They show up in a variety of places, some of which should not under any circumstances be touched by the user, much less by anti-virus software. There are a variety of different things that might be turned up by anti-virus software, some to worry about and many not to. I get questions all the time asking me how to remove a variety of infected files.
