Re: [MacGroup] MailRoute: Email Protection - Spam and Virus Filtering Services
Your right Lee, guess I have trouble trusting someone I don’t know, but I am fooling myself. Those I email would consider me an idiot if I ask them to work with me on encrypting our emails, seems few are concerned but without their cooperation it’s a solo act….unless you have a way to send encryption without the key on both ends?

Re: [MacGroup] Class In Session
Wow. Thanks John. I haven’t tried it yet but will soon.

In the past I have used SnapZPro to capture video’s from the internet. Works great but they always have a problem when Apple does a major update, there is always a lag in them catching up….oh I wish Apple would buy them as was rumored. A disadvantage of using a program like this is the setting the monitors to not go to sleep and waiting for the entire program to play while it’s being recorded…then the rendering inside SnapZ, this can be a very lengthly process. Since I am once again in limbo due to the upgrade to Yosemite and SnapZ not working I looked around for a way to DOWNLOAD video’s from YouTube, and wanted to share this with you, it will work on Windows as well as Mac. See the screenshots below, it’s fantastic. Simply go to Youtube as you always do, load the video you want to capture but don’t play. Screen Shot 2014-12-28 at 12.50.08 PM.png Remove all the URL address prior to “youtube”, and then add the letters “ss”, without the quotation marks. Screen Shot 2014-12-28 at 12.50.31 PM.png This will take you to the “savefrom” site where your video will be waiting for you to choose your format, once you do the download begins, once on your machine it plays perfectly. It’s in the format of MP4, if that’s what you pick but it expands well without distortion. This is going to save me tons of time and allow me to save interviews or product reviews, instruction video’s etc. etc. with ease. They could then be put on the iPad or iPhone (since they are MP4) should I wish to watch from a mobile devise. Thought some of you might find this helpful.

[MacGroup] Mac keeper ?
Hi all, Was having some problems with my safari browser. Had a popup show up saying there was an issue with security being breached and gave me a toll free number to call. The popup wouldn't go away. I restarted the computer a couple times and now Safari seems to be working ok. Was this a scam, or something I should legitimately be concerned about? Thoughts appreciated!

Re: [MacGroup] Mac keeper ?
Don't call those numbers. It's either Mackeeper, third-party optimization software that almost nobody needs, or a third-party security scam that promises to fix non-existent problems for a hefty fee, and usually wants you to download remote-access software that lets them access your Mac directly. And you might want to stay off whatever site was pushing those pop-ups at you, because they're not very choosy about whom they take their ad money from.
