The same day I brought my MacBook home, a friend-of-a-friend Mac "expert" took a look at it and said "This computer isn't behaving very Mac-like," a frown creasing his forehead. I didn't know what "Mac-like" behavior was of course -- I had nothing to compare it to. Of course the statement scared me, especially since this person supposedly knew nothing of my ridiculously unfixable PC security issues. But at the end of the session he seemed convinced my computer was okay. Then a few days later, my outbound firewall popped up the below message.
Along with the ordinary request for permission of a program to have outbound internet access, there was this message at the end: "In the end there can be only one. The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog."
To this day I am not sure how or why that message popped up. It happened several times before I deleted the software (Internet Cleanup 4.0) and replaced it with LittleSnitch. The first line I believe is from Highlander. The second if I am not mistaken is from The Matrix, but I could be wrong. Was someone trying to tell me something, or was this some glitch in the code of the software? Googling the term yielded no result, so my instincts lead me to believe it was the former.
