My husband's computer just received a virus. He was searching for a website to easily download the Maryland State Tax form 502. This is because we were having trouble printing it directly from the Maryland Comptroller website. The computer then clearly notified him that he received two Trojan viruses. Have you ever heard of this problem and if so, how did you fix it?
 
Download.com has a section on mac software, you might find a free anti virus software there. Norton's always the best though. If you're still stuck, call AppleCare Technical Support. I'm not sure of the number, but if you call 1-800-MY-APPLE, you should be able to transfer from there. If you don't have AppleCare plan, it'll cost you $59, but it's worth it for expert advice.

Thats a very good question as it is not very common.

Try this site:

But I would suggest not trying to do to much because the need is to do some manual changing. So I do suggest you take it to a MAC store and let them know and they should help you out.

Hope this helps.
