• remove the IMAc bing search engine

  How can I remove iMac bing search engine? When I search for something on google, the screen automatically goes to bing for a response. I set Google as my search in the settings provider! Frustrated!

  Do not use any type of product, "anti-virus" or "anti-malware" on a Mac. It is never necessary for her, and relying on it for protection makes you more vulnerable to attacks, not less.

  You may have installed one or more variants of the Trojan 'InstallMac '. Please take the following steps to disable.

  The criminal behind this attack tries to make the malware difficult to remove by varying names of the files it installs. This procedure works now, I know. It will not work in the future. Anyone finding this comment a couple of days or more after it was published should look for a more recent discussion, or start a new one.

  Back up all data before proceeding.

  1 triple - click on the line below on this page to select, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination:

  ~/Library/LaunchAgents

  In the Finder, select

  Go ▹ go to the folder...

  from the menu bar and paste it into the box that opens by pressing command + V. You won't see what you pasted a newline being included. Press return. A folder named "LaunchAgents" opens.

  Press command-2 key combination to select the display of the list, if it is not already selected.

  There should be a column in the update Finder window. Click on this title to sort the content by date. This will make the related files easy to identify regardless of their names, because they will have the same modification date.

  2A inside of the folder that you just opened, there may be files with the name of all these forms:

  something. AppRemoval.plist

  Something.download.plist

  Something.ltvbit.plist

  Something.notification.plist

  Something.Update.plist

  Here, something is usually an empty string of sense, for example one of the following:

  Epolife

  InstallMac

  Javeview

  Kuklorest

  Manroling

  Otwexplain

  Here are examples, not a comprehensive list. The chain could be anything, and there might be more value of something. Looking for a group of files with the same date of change who match the description.

  Lately, the striker of "InstallMac" a were quick strings 'AppRemoval', 'download', 'ltvbit' and 'update' in the names of its records. For example, you might see file names such as these, instead of the above:

  something. AppVemoral.plist

  Something.dolnwoad.plist

  Something.btvlit.plist

  Something.uadpte.plist

  You may have more than one copy of the malware, with different values of something.

  Place all of these in the trash. If there are other files whose name begins with something, those in the trash also move. You can get a caveat that some files are locked; Delete them anyway.

  Once you've done that, we may not have anything left in the LaunchAgents folder; in this case, you can remove the folder, but otherwise does not delete it. Other files in the folder are not necessarily malicious (though they may be, if you have also installed another type of malware).

  Log off or restart the computer. The Trojan horse should now be inactive.

  3. This step is optional. Open the folder as in step 1:

  ~/Library/Application Support

  and move it to the trash of the subfolders with the name, something you found in step 2.

  Do not move the Application Support folder or anything else inside.

  4. open the Applications folder. If there is an element named something, or "Hell Zip", or with any of the other names listed in step 2, then drag it to the trash.

  If in doubt, press option-command-4 key combination to get the apps by date added. Look at the apps that have been added since you first noticed the problem. If there is one, that you don't recognize, drag it to the trash.

  You can get an alert that the item is locked. Confirm that you want to move to the trash.

  Empty the trash.

  If you receive an alert that the application is running, force it to quit.

  5. from the Safari menu bar, select

  ▹ Safari preferences... ▹ Extensions

  Uninstall all extensions, you don't know that you need. When in doubt, remove all of them. None is required for normal operation. Do the equivalent with Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use one of the people.

  If the window does not open, restart the computer in safe mode. Some caches maintained by the system will be rebuilt.

• How to find and remove spyware strikes from an iPhone?

  I worked for a short time at a small company a couple of years.   I left when I become convinced that they have been systematically spy on employees.   Since they have insisted that we all use our own phone / computer, I suspect that they installed spyware strike when they installed other software for "compatibility".   I want to be sure that it is gone, so I would do something to remove anything that may still be lingering on my phone and the computer.  How do I do that?  If I wipe & reinstall from backup to the cloud, will this strike spyware also be saved?

  V

  Unless they jailbroke your phone, it is unlikely that you have a keylogger on it.

  They may have installed some profiles that would be used to work within the security of the iOS and a better level of control over your device, but away from logging.

  Check first for profiles. How tell if an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch is overseen - Apple support

  Restore your device using iTunes is a better choice.

• C:\Users\YourProfileName\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ isn't here. I want bing GONE!

  No matter what I tried, I can't get rid of Bing as my new tab. I set google as my default and removed from my choice of search engines, but it won't! I read once that if I uninstall Lavasoft it will go away, but I don't know what it is for... Help, please. Thank you. Smidthmador.

  To change your new tab page, try the following:

  1. Type of about:config in the address bar of Firefox
  2. Locate the browser.newtab.url string
  3. Change the value to the URL of your new desired tab page or the default about:newtab page
  4. Restart Firefox

  That should change your the new tab page. If this isn't the case, please let us know.

• Cannot connect account MSN (Bing) Firefox (Win10)

  I have the latest version of Firefox and Windows 10. I clear my history and cookies a week and thereafter, this time, I can't connect to my Microsoft Account on Bing as my home page. It gives me an error message of invalid certificate. My computer will also not go into mode 'sleep' now. Related or coincidence?

  The most common reason for the 'sec_error_bad_signature' many sites seems to be the shield of Web of Avast. Web Shield intercepts your navigation and filter, but to filter sites secure, it has "fake" certificates for Firefox. Avast have set Firefox to rely on its false certificates, but which seems to fail on a regular basis.

  To test this theory, try disabling scanning of encrypted sites. I saw these steps in another post:

  1. Open the Avast dashboard on an affected system.
  2. Select settings in the left side menu.
  3. Adopt a Protection Active.
  4. Click on customize next to the Web Shield.
  5. Uncheck the option "Enable HTTPS analysis", and then click ok

  If that solves the problem, but you want to filter encrypted communication, you need to import the Avast! signature in Firefox Certificate Manager of certificates, References tab.

  OK, now my login and my password must be defined.

  Firefox is a great browser, not a courier service.

• When I click on Newtab, I get Bing instead of Google

  When I click the Newtab button, I get Bing instead of Google. This has been plaguing me for months.

  Here's how you can change your new tab page:

  (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

  (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste newtab and make a pause so that the list is filtered

  (3) double-click the preference browser.newtab.url and enter your favorite page:

  • (Default) page thumbnails = > subject: newtab
  • Blank tab = > subject: empty
  • Built-in Firefox homepage = > topic: welcome
  • Any other page = > full URL of the page

  Press Ctrl + t to open a new tab and check that it worked. Fixed?

  If the problems persist, some potential diagnoses and remedies:

  If Firefox will not let you change this setting: you can have what is called SearchProtect on your system. This must be removed the control panel.

  Firefox if allows you to save your changes, but he doesn't know: one of your extensions may be the substitution of her. You can consult, disable and/or remove extensions on page modules. Either:

  • CTRL + SHIFT + a
  • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

  In the left column, click Extensions. Then, take a critical look on the list on the right and turn off (or remove) something unknown.

  If the modification works during your session, but during the next startup is return to the unwanted page: you could have a user.js file in your personal settings Firefox (your Firefox profile folder). This article describes how to track down and delete the file: How to fix preferences that will not save.

  A little luck?

  It will depend on if it's a valid update or not. It is possible to do a clean reinstall and a malware scan to be sure. Troubleshooting Firefox problems caused by malicious software and:

  Some Firefox problems can be solved by performing a clean reinstall. This means that you delete your Firefox program files, and then reinstall Firefox. This process does not delete your Firefox profile (such as bookmarks and passwords) data, since this information is stored in a different location.

  To do a clean reinstall of Firefox, follow these steps: Note: you can print these steps or consult them in another browser.

  1. Download the latest version of Firefox from mozilla.org office (or choose the download for your operating system and language on this page) and save the file to install it on your computer.
  2. Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (or open the Firefox menu

     

     Click the close button

     

     ).

  3. Remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
     • Windows:
       • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
       • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
     • Mac: Delete Firefox in the Applications folder.
     • Linux: If you have installed Firefox with the distribution-based package manager, you must use the same way to uninstall: see Install Firefox on Linux. If you have downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.
  4. Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
     1. Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
     2. Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.

  More information on the resettlement of Firefox can be found here.

  WARNING: Do not use an uninstaller to third parties as part of this process. This could permanently delete your Firefox profile data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and passwords saved. They can be retrieved easily unless they have been backed up on an external device! See back up and restore the information contained in the profiles of Firefox.

  Please report to say if this helped you!

• New tab always opens Bing, but about: config does not have listed options...

  I have a question where my home page has been changed to the Bing home page, and after I corrected it seems now that any time I opened a new tab, it goes straight to the Bing...
  I found a solution to this in another thread, but it seems to be incorrect for my browser.

  type: newtab is the third option down that says searchinnewtabeenabledbyuser. Double-click on it and where it says 'true', ' false '.

  As indicated in the filename of the image as an attachment, there is no "searchinnewtabeenabledbyuser" on this page?
  So, I'm always curious about a correction for this problem!

  Don't know where you find this - searchinnewtabeenabledbyuser - pref pref invalid, does not exist by default. Could be added pref by an extension, for anyone who posted.

  Browser.newtab.URL is the pref you want - right click and select reset
  Then restart Firefox.

• Cannot remove the bing.vc start page.

  I have tried everything I can find to stop the bing.vc to open start page in firefox version 39 and so far nothing has worked. I can't find a reference to in about: config. firefox update did not help; No Add-ons refer to him and protect the pipes or research do not appear to uninstall programs in Control Panel. No malware removal tool has no effect on it and I used everything that was recommended on the Mozilla support site. Help please!

  No, I do not use the subject: Firefox home start page. I use Yahoo.com as my start page. I tried the Preferences section and removed my Bing search ad. It contains a list of Yahoo as my home page and I also ran Malware bytes, Ccleaner, Spybot S and D, Super Spyware Blaster and other recommended online. I've also scanned with AVG. None of them have picked up something suspicious. I'll try a line like Panda Cloud AV scanner Thanks again for your help.

   For some unknown reason, Bing.vc is gone.  Don't have a clue what I did but something worked.  Your help was greatly appreciated.
