Less hygienic, too. Good morning, 'sock' - how sad it is that you feel a need to hide your identity. :-( People who do so invariable raise my suspicions about them. What this means, in effect, is that visitors to the Apple Support Communities have to put their complete faith and trust into what is said by, effectively, complete strangers. From what I have already determined, advice given is not necessarily checked by Apple staff. Why the 'Hosts' chose to delete the whole discussion about ClamXav intrigued me. It wasn't 'logical' as Spock might have said. The developer of ClamXav, if genuine, should have been only too pleased to answer questions on the forums. When one approves the installation of software like ClamXav onto one's Apple machine, one is giving 'carte blanche' for that software to do *anything it wishes* on one's computer. (Carte blanche, a French phrase, meaning "unlimited discretionary power to act; unrestricted authority".) You, as the user, will have absolutely no idea whether or not your computer has been compromised. I believe this to be a FACT! Just in case you are wondering about the :bananas: ................... https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/for...-one-might-do/ By the way, I'm confident in the advice given by Thomas Reed, now a Director of Malwarebytes Inc and someone who has a profile on LinkedIn. https://forums.malwarebytes.com/topi...omment-1243073 What's YOUR view of John Daniel? https://www.linkedin.com/in/etresoft/ "Etresoft, Inc. is a Canadian software development and consulting corporation in business since 2015. Etresoft's most popular product is EtreCheck, a macOS diagnostic tool used by over half a million people and frequently recommended on Apple Support Communities." http://www.etresoft.com/ He elected to terminate email contact with me and became quite hostile on the ASC. That really bothers me. :-( -- David B. |

And we’ve used all that we’ve learned to redesign the App Store from the ground up.
