Some hacker attack on my computer?

I think it's time to stop reading log files. Unless you know exactly what you're looking at when looking at a log file, then you'll likely be alarmed and worried about every log entry you see.

Nothing I see in those logs is out of the ordinary. A couple of blocks on Flash banner ads, nothing to get excited about at all.

I think what you've done is load so much protection software on your Mac that it's interfering with normal operation. You're now being warned about EVERYthing that occurs on your Mac, whether it's actually malicious activity or not.

You are not running a Windows PC -- you do not need several layers of malware protection, antivirus protection and registry cleaners, all working at the same time. A simple firewall would be more than adequate to protect you from the evil internet pirates.

Oh, nvm all that. I just decided to turn my PG off and all the websites work! I guess the messages were just incoming packets from the servers.

Yeah, you're right, I'll calm down. Those dreadful viruses I once had on my Windows XP must sill be haunting me.
