If I run windows on a Mac, is my computer just as susceptible to viruses as a regular PC running win

If I run windows on a Mac, is my computer just as susceptible to viruses as a regular PC running windows? I am not totally positive what makes a computer vulnerable to viruses, an OS or the computer hardware itself?? TIA.

A better made OS is less susceptible to viruses.

Right now Mac is less safe than Windows Vista, %26 Linux is the most safest (%26 legally free)

For Apple Macintosh OS X (latest version). Currently, 6% (7 out of 116) are marked as Unpatched with the most severe being rated Moderately critical

For Microsoft Windows Vista (latest version). Currently, 10% (3 out of 30) are marked as Unpatched with the most severe being rated Less critical

For Ubuntu Linux 7.10. Currently, 0% (0 out of 69) are marked as Unpatched (this is NOT the latest version of Linux, because the stats aren't out yet)

Apache/Linux based servers are the most popular in the world; therefore a larger target for Viruses etc. Despite this, historically speaking it has been the safest.

If you can,you sure are...get avg anti virus and zone alarm firewall.I have both and they are great...free versions

When I open messages in myspace from a friend's hacked account, can I get viruses?

Just wondering if when I open messages from friends that their accounts have been hacked and it is just spam mail being sent by their account, can it send a virus along with it? I know that some emails have been used in the past to transfer viruses from computer to computer, is that the case with myspace messages too? being that they are like emails? Just wondering because I just opened a bunch of messages from friends with a hacked account and hacked messages.

Thanks

No you can't get a virus. People on myspace get phished by putting their password into fake sights designed to look like the myspace homepage. Its just spam. Don't click on the add and then stupidly put your password into the sight that looks like myspace because then you will get phished too!

Tom wrote a blog all about it.

When I open messages in myspace from a friend's hacked account, can I get viruses?computers

i think that is how they get ur password and info. i would change ur password and do it often just to be on the safe side!
You wont get viruses but you can get spyware
It's not being "hacked" because its a computer doing it.

it's been phished.

you'll see messages like: "hey i posted you image on this site: blahhh.com" you dont get viruses or anything really bad. especially just by opening them.

but if you reply to them then your homepage will tell you that you were phished too.

so if you see those kinda messages dont reply to them.

Rundll32.exe??? Why do I have 3 of rundll32.exe? Are 2 of them viruses?

I have 3 rundll32.exe. I am worried that my computer has been infected by virus. Here are the following.

Rundll32.exe

Rundll32.exe

Rundll32.exe

As you can see, they are all the same except one thing. Memory usage and PID. I am not sure which 2 are the viruses, if you have a Rundll32.exe in your processes, then can you tell me how much K and PID it takes?

Oh and here are the K's and PIDs for the Rundll.exe

1. Rundll32.exe...1720PID...4 428K

2. Rundll32.exe...1556PID...4 524K

3. Rundll32.exe....432PID.....5 840K

Oh and if you only have one Rundll32.exe tell me which one of these is right. THANKS

Rundll32.exe??? Why do I have 3 of rundll32.exe? Are 2 of them viruses?auto protect

Rundll32 is a host program that is part of windows...

What it does is it lets you call program functions that are in a DLL without having a whole other program to do it.

Viri and trojans do use this method to run processes under this ananymous host program...

Same thing happens with scvhost.exe as well...they can run files that dont normally run like functions in a DLL

Normally if you have a newer computer (xppro or later) then this file should not be running at all times, mostly it runs during a program setup when it will calls system32.dll for some registration functions.

You can search the registry and get more information there.

My computer hangs!:( it happens without any reason. mouse and keyboard gets freezed.there are no vir

my comp configuration is... Pentium 4 (3GHz), 915 GAV Motherboard, 512Mb DDR RAM, 160Gb IDE hard disc. i'm using win Xp with service pack 2.. i have checked for viruses using many antiviruses repeatedly.. but none of them(viruses) have been detected..

When comp gets hanged there is no othere choice for me, have to press the reset button.... please help me out....

My computer hangs!:( it happens without any reason. mouse and keyboard gets freezed.there are no viruses. y?avast

What do you mean 'hanged'? If you mean crash, then I need to know when it crashes, you may need to replace your Hard Drive Disk. If you can still access your files, BACK THEM UP! You don't want to lose everything.

Is it a Dell? If so, as soon as you start the computer hold in F8, it's ok if it beeps. After that use the arrowkeys to select Safe Mode. If you can get into safe mode, then back up your files. If you can't, tell me what happens.

I'm going to need more information. Do you still have the Windows Reinstallation CD?

I need you to tell me exactly what happens when you try to start up your computer.

Good Luck.

Too many TSRs. Check task manager.
You may have low Virtual Memory, try deleting some programs
Mine had that problem too. Do you have more than one disc drive in it?

I had a DVD/CD RW and a DVD ROM in mine and unless I had a disc in the ROM drive that system hang thing would happen. It was like that from day one and I never really understood why. I eventually removed the second drive entirely and put it in another computer and there's been no problems. Odd.

New to Macs. I hear people talk all the time about how "Macs don't get viruses" but d

I understand that programmers don't create viruses for Macs, I get that. I was wondering how universal that statement is. For example, if I was using P2P (peer to peer) software such as LimeWire, are my risks for getting a virus the same, reduced, or greater than if I was using a microsoft/windows based computer?

I really would like to know what the statement really applies to.

Thanks

New to Macs. I hear people talk all the time about how "Macs don't get viruses" but does that really apply?best antivirus software

A virus is a program, and as such it has to target a platform. A virus that targets Windows, which 99% do, will not run on an Apple platform. Apple's OS won't know how to interpret the code, and even then won't have access to the code libraries it needs to run. The virus is a chunk of binary garbage on an Apple. Your risk of virus' from P2P software is about nil. You may get a lot of them, but they won't be able to do anything.

they are very very very low compared to a windows machine

a mac is much more protected in its design while windows is more open
