I was using the google app and reading an article on a website when it redirected me to a different website that was a black screen that had a tiny pop up looking thing in the center. I quickly hit the back button and it returned to google as if nothing happened. It kind of freaked me out so I plugged it into my computer, thinking I could use AVG to scan it, because I can do that with my cell phone when I plug it in. The only problem is my computer recognizes it as a camera and theres no way that I can see to virus scan it. I dont know what to do! I tried to call apple technical support but the stupid place closes at 6 (it was 15 minutes too late!!!) I dont know if i should restore to its factory settings and lose all of my apps and saved stuff, and risk that not fixing it, or if i should just wait til tomorrow when I can call apple. I've gotten viruses on my computer through websites before so I'm wondering if ipods are the same way. Or if maybe they dont download cookies and things the same way that computers do. Anyone with any experience that can help me out with this? I'm kinda freaking out. Since I was 16 I've gone through 8 different ipods for various reasons and this one has lasted the longest and I'd really like it to last even longer, lol. Also as another side note. I did not get the apple care protection plan when it was purchaused, but its been less then a year. Is there a warrenty on it that apple gives complementary for the first year? Because if it has a virus and I have warrenty on it I can just mail it to them and they'll fix it for free right?... Read More »
