advice below may be out of date — treat specific steps and download links with caution.
I have a macbook. I stupidly fell for a phishing email (that looked like it was from Wells Fargo). I downloaded and opened the attachment. I don't presently have virus protection, but that will change tomorrow. Should I be worried that I downloaded a virus or something equivalent. My computer hasn't slowed down, nor do I have pop ups. There aren't any symptoms of my computer being infected. Is there other action I should take besides installing a virus protection program? I really don't want problems from my stupid action.
This forum does not work with Mac computers, only with Microsoft Windows based systems.
The following forums have support for Macs, however I couldn't say whether that includes Malware removal support ...

.... The level of help at all the above forums is generally very good.
