Yesterday on my Mac I searched for something and opened a site that looked normal. When I opened it the site was all in some foreign language and looked dangerous. I shut it down right away, ran my malware program (Intego) and changed passwords. But I am wondering if I should be further worried about possible malware or hacking? I do my personal stuff on this Mac also.
I bought my home a few years ago and it is fully wired for ethernet internet but there is no hub or anything to allow me to connect to the outlets throughout the house. I am wondering if using the ethernet would be safer than wifi? If so, does anyone have a recommendation on how to find someone to come in and figure out how to get the home network activated? I imagine I need some type of hub or router where the wires are originating from in the basement, but not sure what.
Thanks for any advice!
