so i just bought my lovely Macbook Pro about a month ago and i love it like my baby, so you can imagine my dismay to find out that i was dumb enough to fall for that facebook virus that's floating around - you know, where someone on your buddylist IMs you asking if they can post a photo of you on facebook with a link and upon clicking the link you inadvertently send it to your buddylist. i haven't picked up on anything weird yet, nothing has happened, but i suspected a virus when i received the message so i googled it and lo and behold, it's a virus. i'm new to OS X, up until i'd gotten my Macbook, i'd been on Windows for about twelve years. so. my question is, what do i do? what program or fixes or what have you are out there for mac? i'd like to nip this thing before it actually does any noticable damage to my poor baby macbook. thanks in advance!
