How to stop Safari diversion on my imac

I get diverted into Safari in El Capitan on my iMac.  I'm getting diverted to tabs for Mackeeper, Mac Reimage, Internetcarguide and a few others.  I deleted the history of the site, deleted the Safari web caches, disabled the extensions and plugins and completed the following. The effects were zero.

Delete the file of configuration of Safari:

  1. Open the Go menu in the OS X Finder
  2. Hold the Option key and choose the library option that appears
  3. Move the folder "Safari" here on your desktop

Remove the Safari window state:

  1. Open the library > folder state saved application
  2. Find the folder "com.apple.Safari.savedState".
  3. Move this file to the trash

Remove the Safari application caches:

  1. Open the library > Caches folder
  2. Find all files starting with "com.apple.Safari".
  3. Move these files to the trash.

Delete Safari Cookies configurations:

  1. Open the library > Cookies folder
  2. Delete the file called "com.apple.Safari.SafeBrowsing.binarycookies".

Delete the preferences of Safari:

  1. Open the library > Preferences folder
  2. Delete all files starting with "com.apple.Safari".

Remove the user plug-ins:

  1. Go to library > Internet Plug-Ins folder
  2. Move all items in this folder on your desktop (or elsewhere)

Remove the global plugins:

  1. Go to Macintosh HD > library > Internet plug-ins folder
  2. Out all items in this folder, except the following plug-ins:
Default Browser.plugin iPhotoPhotocast.plugin Quartz Composer.webplugin QuickTime Plugin.plugin

They may also be removed to test your situation, but it should be replaced. In addition, if deleting plugins doesn't show any difference in behavior of your browser, then replace them. However, you can also replace the by downloading the latest versions of Web sites of their developers.

What can I do else?

Also, continuing on my previous post - I have installed free Bitminder, Bitminder Antivirus for Mac and ClamXav, run them all through all directories and the behavior remains after having been declared clean.

  • How to stop the diversion of search engine

    Right to the point: how to prevent sites like yahoo to misappropriation of your research?

    Now, before the flames begin to-I checked several sites and non of show them how to STOP yahoo (and others) of hijacking, only how to FIX. It is easy fixing. These are two completely different questions. Stop, it's what interests me.

    That said, lets ask it differently this time, why mozilla is allowing other sites in an arbitrary manner, a whim, authorize a Web site changes to the someones browser? If someone sets their browser to a specific search engine, mozilla shall not permit to be changed by one source, other than the owner (the user in this case), at BEST maybe a fox herself warning system requesting a change.

    This would raise the question, how many other problems of security work in the background that are not intrusive (recorders, data mining etc..) which are 'allowed' to manipulate the Fox without knowing them users? How can I install / activate some features of alert that maybe says:

    "Your current search engine [search engine] was changed, are you sure? Now, users are less likely to lose their search engine without warning.

    Web sites cannot change your default search engine in Firefox without having to install a local file, is a program that changes your settings or an add-on. If you've seen any site show how to hack the default search engine setting while visiting a web page, please report the URL to Mozilla for urgent investigation.

    Downloading a program and especially an add-on install prompts the user to allow/disallow installation, although the site may not be honest about the purpose and effect of the program, and Firefox is unable to break down a program in real time and tell you in advance what he does.

    The most frequent cases seen on this forum is where a user has downloaded free software as "watch live sports anywhere" or "video" and it comes with a range of invasive software that either has not been disclosed or you just didn't notice in the 10 pages of small print, you have accepted. In fact, the installer may have been downloaded with any browser and affect all your browsers.

    In regards to the programs that you are allowing your system how can Firefox, Firefox assumes that you accepted and allows them to run if they meet the current validation requirements and have not been reported for blocking. There is not a ban on Add-ons that affect research. If you think that there should be, you could raise this suggestion on the forum of modules here:
