iMac hacked? I think my iMac is infected. Yesterday I've visited a website. I got a message that My MacAfee detected something I clicked it away I thought, I don't have MacAfee, I've got Norton security. I did run Norton, It says there's no problem. I got messages It says my system has a hardware failure. The icon was the same as system settings. It says I've got to pay for MacAfee. I didn't trust it but didn't know what to do. I looked in the apps and there's a app calling systeeminstellingen. I don't think that's right. I tried to remove it, but richt click doesn't work, I cannot delete it. In the picture there's a picture of the contents of the map which called itself systeeminstellingen. What can I do? Am I right, Is this map the bad thing? Thanks in advance Rita
