TIP: If you or someone in your family downloads #illegal movies, music, & software you are greatly increasing your risk of getting #malware or a #virus (if you have not already checked, we highly recommend you check to see if your kids are downloading stuff they should not be. You as the owner of the Internet in your house are the one that is ultimately responsible if you are hit with a copyright lawsuit (Yes! That’s a thing). Plus, your ISP may start to slow your speed as a penalty.)
When you download uTorrent (a popular Mac torrent client), you automatically have malware on your Mac as soon as you install it!
We just helped a customer yesterday in Severna Park who was into this sort of stuff, and his #Mac was totally full of Malware and other bad software. It was so bad, that we had to run our Anti-Malware software twice and even then, we had to go in and manually remove a bunch of other stuff. Good news: We got rid of all the bad stuff (they thought we’d have to erase the Mac to get rid of it), performed the service in about 30-minutes, and the bill was only $49.
