Domain Name Server (DNS) hijacking, also named DNS redirection, is a
type of DNS attack in which DNS queries are incorrectly resolved in
order to unexpectedly redirect users to malicious sites. To perform the
attack, perpetrators either install malware on user computers, take over
routers, or intercept or hack DNS communication.

That sounds almost like a copy_and_paste. Far too complicated
for me to understand. Could you give us a description IN YOUR OWN
WORDS, preferably with some examples, and help us understand why BT
Internet hacked your router (they are the only ones that know your
router address).
Do you think the hack was court-mandated?
Could it have been because of your criminal activity?
So many questions un-answered by a rather stupid copy and
paste.

I promised that I'd speak with Apple Support again

For the tenth time this week, how I pity those guys in North
Korea or is it China now? They should be paid double for a BD call.

The reason for my call was to provide feedback, for which the adviser was
most grateful.

LOL.
I asked if he would email me to confirm that situation but he declined.

Confirming technical details by email is pretty standard
procedure (not if you are the laughing stock of support or flagged as
a STALKER though).
Did he tell you why he refused?

PS You're so stupid you didn't notice you're posting about
Apple support to a Win 10 group. Or maybe you were phishing for new
victims? It's what you do.

Oh, Paul! You went to a great deal of trouble. Thank you. I'll not
bother to scan my WD Home Book again. I didn't think there was anything

Windows machine from here on in.

Would you have any more faith in ClamAV when it's dressed up as ClamXAV?

There's quite a good article here
https://uk.pcmag.com/antivirus/4669/clamxav-for-mac

However, one *NOW* has to pay an *annual subscription*.
https://www.clamxav.com

A waste of money?!!

As far as I know, all Clam derivatives are using the
same signature database.

For me, that output is too noisy with PUA detection
turned on. You cannot accept the output as a verbatim
indication of a problem. You need other scanners to
verify each detection, making the Clam scan kind of
a waste of time.

I don't have a collection of virus samples to do
a noise analysis at the AV level. But for PUA,
it's a hopeless mess. All I can say is, for an
AV test, it did detect the EICAR string (not
a big achievement).

I've actually had one AV which failed to find EICAR :-/
That's why I use it as a test, as it represents
the "wet paper bag test".

Anyway, the *GOOD NEWS* is that, with the new installation of macOS

No ****ing kidding. It worked for everybody else. PEBCK, boyo, PEBCK.

No. It didn't!

It now plays both CDs *AND* DVDs! :-D

Thank you to everyone who helped me.

You’re an idiot.

This might help *YOU* one day! Read carefully:-

Notice how he can’t explain how the router was hacked and then was not

*DNS hijacking and why is it harmful*?

A DNS hijack means that someone has intentionally modified the settings
on your router without your consent. This type of attack allows an
attacker to monitor, control, or redirect your Internet traffic. For
example, if your router's DNS has been hijacked, any time you visit an
online banking site on any device connected to that router, you may end
up being redirected to a fake version of the site.

From there, the attacker can gain access to your banking session and
use it to transfer money without your knowledge. Home routers can be
hacked if they contain vulnerabilities, or if they are misconfigured.

No(though in your case, anything is possible). Read the
article you copy and pasted, do some research and then IN YOUR OWN
WORDS explain alternate methods of DNS hijacking.
Try to avoid mentioning any STALKING_TARGETS in your
"presentation".
