Q: How do I now if I have a malware or virus?
Hi I just stumble upon a website that gave me a warning of a possible virus or malware in my computer (I got nervous and I closed it down) so I don't know if this was a warning from apple safari or a malware or virus from the website
What happened in this between, and a few minutes later is that my mac started to go really slowly (still the safari was opened) and i was trying to search for the problem but I couldn't do anything since it was all locked for a few seconds and the slowly again
so I closed safari and restarted the mac
now everything seems fine
so I cleared all the cookies, history and caches as I saw on other posts in this forum
but I'm worried that I've got some virus or malware or something
but I went looking and the new versions of the mac doesn't come with the Java installed (so does mine)
so it is possible that I still have something, since I didn't have the java installed and already cleared all cookies, history and caches, and all website data?
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X El Capitan (10.11.4)
