I have a macbook with no antivirus/antispyware/adware program on it and yesterday I clicked a link and thought it was harmless and it installed some .wmv file on my mac and some mail in my outbox. All these boxes popped up and I finally deleted the outbox mail and the files it installed myself but I am not sure I got everything. Should I be concerned? And What do you think this could of been?? Now my computer seems to be working fine and is not showing any symptoms of a virus or anything.
