• Adware/Malware on Mac Air

  Hey,.

  Unfortunately I picked up some adware/malware, but I can't locate the source of it on my computer. I have found no extensions or plug-ins in any of my browsers, but the Adware/Malware is injected into the three (Safari, Chrome and Mozilla). I don't remember downloading programs in the last days (the problem is recent), but it slows down my mac.

  I tried to re - install OS X but it it has not erased. I have searched through the launch folder & deleted all files .plist, restarted and noticed that they have been removed, but as soon as I log in the browsers I am spammed by pop-up/ad links! I don't know what else to do? Someone at - it ideas?

  I use a MacBook (13-inch, early 2015) Air, 1.6 GHz Intel Core i5, 4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3, Intel HD 6000 1536 MB graphics card.

  Thank you!

  The following comes from user stevejobsfan0123. I made minor changes to adapt to this presentation.

  Difficulty of pop-ups in browser that support Safari.

  Common pop - ups include a message saying that the Government has taken over your computer and you pay release (often called "Moneypak"), or a false message saying that your computer has been infected and you need to call a number of tech support (sometimes claiming to be Apple) to get it to be resolved. First of all, understand that these pop-ups are not caused by a virus and that your computer has not been assigned. This "hack" is limited to your web browser. Also understand that these messages are scams, so don't pay not money, call number, or provide personal information. This article will give an overview of the solution to remove the pop-up window.

  Quit Safari

  Usually, these pop-ups will not go by clicking 'OK' or 'Cancel '. In addition, several menus in the menu bar may become disabled and show in grey, including the option to leave Safari. You'll probably force quit Safari. To do this, press command + option + ESC, select Safari, press on force quit.

  Relaunch Safari

  If you restart Safari, the page will reopen. To avoid this, hold the "Shift" key when opening Safari. This will prevent windows since the last time that Safari was running since the reopening.

  It will not work in all cases. The SHIFT key must be maintained at the right time, and in some cases, even if done correctly, the window is displayed again. In these circumstances, after force quit Safari, turn off Wi - Fi or disconnect Ethernet, depending on how you connect to the Internet. Then restart Safari normally. He'll try to reload the malicious Web page, but without a connection, it will not be able to. Leave this page by entering a different URL, i.e. www.apple.com and try to load it. Now you can reconnect to the Internet and the page that you entered is displayed rather than the malicious.

• Anti-Virus detects but removes no adware/malware

  Hello

  I have a Readynas RN102 with 6.4.1. firmware. I have more installed anti-virus. Today it started to detect Adware (W32 / Adware.DEZV - 3749 or NsCPUMiner32.exe) and Bitcoinminer Trojan (W64Adware.DEZV - 3749 - NsCPUMiner64.exe). Both were hidden in a file called Info.zip.

  Because I couldn't see the files in the management web page / share (even when displaying of hidden files) I changed the anti-virus more to 'Action - Delete' setting and a scheduled scan. He had tested and found the files, but in log files, he repeats that I have to delete the infected file yourself.

  Any help on:

  -log file: why does not say what is it deleted the file or not

  -display and by deleting files myself manually

  -a specific malware / adware removal app for the ReadyNas

  Thanks in advance,

  Jan

  HA Kodhee,

  Thank you. I always keep my antivirus updated. So maybe this is the reason why no virus is detected (asuming it was a false alarm as well).

  I did what you suggested and selected / unselected files of several cards that were "infected" files It was an hour ago, and I don't have any message. More than my scan that I had planned this evening.

  I'll keep my fingers crossed and do a final check tomorrow morning.

• Safari bug/adware/malware won't go even after full restore

  Hello

  I can't get rid of a bug that continues to make windows pop up or forcing me on stupid 'you have won a prize' sites, even after having repeatedly a clean full restore (no backup) of the iPhone. I thought he might come back through the data of Safari in iCloud, but it happens even when I don't sign in iCloud in the newly restored phone.

  After that I restored the iPhone happens almost immediately when I open Safari and go to a website, and I'm not on first order as bbc.co.uk sites. The following pop ups and websites keep appearing:

  

  Here are two examples, but others arrive. I am on iOS later and have deleted all the data browser Safari etc.

  Really can't believe it happens immediately after a completely fresh restoration... it seems that the bug is in the iOS data!

  Thank you very much

  Daniel

  Go to settings > Safari > clear the history and data from the Web site. After doing this, you can still open Safari and go about your normal browsing.

  I noticed that the two examples you listed seem to be linked to Facebook. I have my own personal struggle with what I now called bad links in my Facebook News feed. Clickbait sites that you get tire to begin plaguing your screen with ads and even permanently redirect you to another site like the one you see here. It is an annoyance, but is not one that is clean in iOS. You can have all the pleasure of dealing with similar experiences click on bad links on your computer as well.  It's a question on the web.

• Chrome browser adwares / malwares?  Cannot close the window

  Hello
  I'm trying to help my mother to troubleshoot remotely.  She has a Mac Mini running El Capitan 10.11 and she seems to have some sort of malicious infection?

  I enclose a photo of its Chrome browser window - she can't close Chrome and if she did a restart it back just to the same window.

  We did download and run Avast free Mac Security (oops - probably should have checked here everything first).  The scan has not fixed the problem.

  Should reset us the router?  Any help is appreciated!

  

  No malware was installed or downloaded.

  It is simply a Javascript in the browser designed to trick people by dialing a phone number and give criminals access to your computer so that they can steal money.

  Force quit chrome.

  Restart it in now shift clicking on the chrome icon.

  Clear cookies and cache of the browser.

• Does anyone else have a problem with Adware/Malware with Chrome and Safari?

  Started having trouble there is 24 to 36 hours. It affects both my iMac and my Air. Pop-up windows whenever I try to click through an e-mail and within an application when I want to read on or click on a left/right arrow to display additional information.

  Browse the list of "applications" in the finder and find any number of malicious applications. whenever I'm fixing Mac of someone who is having this problem, I googled 'virus [application] '.

• Lenovo, statements about the Adware/Malware/MITM Superfish

  I was frankly appalled to learn Superfish, which I think is installed on my Yoga 3 Pro bought in November.  If including this kind of software without the explicit consent and informed of the users is not crime, it should be.

  I have read the statement of Lenovo and saw this:

  «Users are given a choice to use the product or not.»

  Can someone explain to me what this choice looked like when presented to users?  I can't imagine in my wildest dreams consent to any kind of adware, and I don't remember be presented with 'choice' of wheter to use this software.

  In addition, given that the Superfish pre-installed root certificate has been hacked and is easily usable by any pirate for a man-in-the-middle attack, what measures are taken to revoke the certificate and purge completely (as well as the Superfish software) of all infected machines?

  burndive,

  The Yoga 3 Pro is not on the list of affected systems.

• Adobe Flash player and malware pop ups

  Help Adobe!

  I go to the Adobe website and download and now I get this "Media Downloader 12.2" it just slow down my machine and I'm a swamp of pop ups!

  I removed the installation... and now I have no access to all Web sites that require flash.

  I have download the appropriate and this update installation "Media Downloader 12.2 pop up ' piggy on that support.

  THIS IS A HUGE DRAWBACK... Help, please!

  Hello

  "Media Downloader 12.2' is not a product that is bundled with the installer of Flash Player."  It is possible that you have clicked on a malicious pop-up and have been redirected to another site.  We are aware of this people and followed on issues when we hear about them. Some of these malicious pop-ups and sites make great efforts to look like official notifications, Adobe and installation dialog boxes.  What is the site you went to download the Flash Player? I will forward the site to people appropriate for tracking on. If you are able to reproduce the pop-up dialog box, please take a screenshot and post it here.

  In the meantime, you can download Flash Player directly from one of the following locations:

  • Installation problems | Flash Player | Windows
  • Installation problems | Flash Player | Mac

  At the bottom of the page, in the section 'Problems', there will be links to download different types of plugin based on your browser.

• How to repair an application without loss of information

  Google Chrome is unresponsive. I have some important, unsaved information. What can I do to solve the problem without losing information?

  Chrome is a browser; the only thing you store bookmarks, so I'm not sure I understand your question: If an application does not meet third party, then one) try to force out them and b) remove and download/reinstall. In this case, you'd probably lose your bookmarks.

  What exactly is no information on this subject? And exactly what is happening? Do you have the freeze because of the adware/malware pop ups?

  I scanned my system with Avast / avira and malware bytes. He did not find anything
