I have a MacBook Pro and upgraded to Lion. Kept getting non-Apple pop ups and the dreaded Yahoo search redirect.


I bought and ran bitDefender and all of the viruses it found were from QuickTime. It fixed them all and I'm good now. But I can't trust QuickTime.


Even Mac to Mac there's a virus problem. Although I can't recall where I downloaded it from, I'm pretty good at getting things from the best source - Apple in this case.
