TY! I heeded the advice in the KungFU link.... TY Ed for posting it. I occasionally get a RED SCREEN alerting me that a link I was clicking MIGHT contain harmful contents. I've gotten a few ransomware screens that lock up my browser (so far that's all). I quit Chrome and it returns to normal again.
This stuff scares me..... and it is why I've been using mac's exclusively for 13 years now. I use airport time capsule thingie.... but still.... you never know. I often wondered IF it would affect the airport. I have a TON of stuff (mostly photos) that I could never replace. Thanks again for alerting us! :-) Judy On Wed, Mar 9, 2016 at 5:39 PM, Lee Larson <[email protected]> wrote: > On 03/09/2016 04:49 PM, JJ wrote: > >> Is this the same one that mackungfu was describing in their article? >> >> >> http://www.consumerreports.org/laptops/apple-ransomware-case-what-it-means/ >> > > Yes.
