Blinkist

More knowledge in less time. I use Blinkist as a means of expanding my knowledge base. I use Blinkist to absorb the key ideas of a book, and gauge whether I want to invest the time into actually reading all the contents of the book.

ClamAV

Open source anti-virus software for mac

Set up ClamAV for OSX #1 : The open source virus scanner

Update ClamAV database

freshclam -v

This will download all kind of information and database files ClamAV uses to run it scans. It may take a while depending on your internet speed.

Scan everything (can take several hours)

Now we can start a single scan that checks all our files:

clamscan -r — bell -i /

Instead of / you can also add a path like “~/” if you only want to scan your home directory, or “/Applications/”. But you should in the end scan everything.

sudo mkdir /INFECTED  
sudo clamscan -r — scan-pdf=yes -l /INFECTED/infected.txt — move=/INFECTED/ /
