    mp and everyone else that suggested avg clearly should not be suggesting anti's to anyone tbh

    I'm a computer technician.

    Therefore, I should be suggesting them, not you.

    Also, noulrn2computer

    Also, SAS scans for Trojan spyware not Trojan viruses.

    Thank you and good day.

    I fixed this by transferring files with my new 4th generation iPod, so it's all good now. Thanks for the help everyone.

    There should be proof the AVG is better than your SuperAntiSpyware thing

    Haha, best way to go =]

    Only because a small market of people own macs, and no one cares that much to script anything malicious,
    and to be fair, Macs now dual-boot Windows :eek:

    thats not proof at all
    superantispyware just isnt among the popular brands, and is very likely that it wasnt even compared with the other antis

    I actually did a seperate search later and it did come up, just not as an antivirus. It came up as part of spyware protection.


    @Burning, I'd suggest you install Zone Alarm as a firewall to lessen the chances of something like this happening again.
