Ok, i was surfing on the internet and this pop up (i had my pop up blocker down for im) came up and said your computer may be infected with spyware would you like to do a free scan? I clicked cancel (it was very obviously a scam) and it started downloading. I tried to quit it, which didn't work. It then (while still loading) said i had spyware. I held down the power button and my mac shut down just before it finished loading. Am i now infected with some virus??? I have a mac and use the tiger os. I reset safari and then randomly apple sent me a message to update my security. Help, why did this happen, and did shutting my mac down cancel the download? Thanks very much.
