  You may have installed one or more variants of the malware "VSearch' ad-injection. Please back up all data, and then take the steps below to disable it.

  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.

  Malware is constantly evolving to work around defenses against it. 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.

  Step 1

  VSearch malware tries to hide by varying names of the files it installs. It regenerates itself also if you try to remove it when it is run. To remove it, you must first start in safe mode temporarily disable the malware.

  Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for other instructions.

  Step 2

  When running in safe mode, load the web page and then triple - click on the line below to select. Copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination:

  /Library/LaunchDaemons

  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 "LaunchDaemons" can open. If this is the case, press the combination of keys command-2 to select the display of the list, if it is not already selected.

  There should be a column in the update Finder window. Click this title two times to sort the content by date with the most recent at the top. Please don't skip this step. Files that belong to an instance of VSearch will have the same date of change for a few minutes, then they will be grouped together when you sort the folder this way, which makes them easy to identify.

  Step 3

  In the LaunchDaemons folder, there may be one or more files with the name of this form:

  com Apple.something.plist

  When something is a random string, without the letters, different in each case.

  Note that the name consists of four words separated by dots. Typical examples are:

  com Apple.builins.plist

  com Apple.cereng.plist

  com Apple.nysgar.plist

  There may be one or more items with a name of the form:

  com.something.plist

  Yet once something is a random string, without meaning - not necessarily the same as that which appears in one of the other file names.

  These names consist of three words separated by dots. Typical examples are:

  com.semifasciaUpd.plist

  com.ubuiling.plist

  Sometimes there are items (usually not more than one) with the name of this form:

  com.something .net - preferences.plist

  This name consists of four words (the third hyphen) separated by periods. Typical example:

  com.jangly .net - preferences.plist

  Drag all items in the basket. You may be prompted for administrator login password.

  Restart the computer and empty the trash.

  Examples of legitimate files located in the same folder:

  com.apple.FinalCutServer.fcsvr_ldsd.plist

  com Apple.Installer.osmessagetracing.plist

  com Apple.Qmaster.qmasterd.plist

  com Apple.aelwriter.plist

  com Apple.SERVERD.plist

  com Tether.plist

  The first three are clearly not VSearch files because the names do not match the above models. The last three are not easy to distinguish by the name alone, but the modification date will be earlier than the date at which VSearch has been installed, perhaps several years. None of these files will be present in most installations of Mac OS X.

  Do not delete the folder 'LaunchDaemons' or anything else inside, unless you know you have another type of unwanted software and more VSearch. The file is a normal part of Mac OS X. The "demon" refers to a program that starts automatically. This is not inherently bad, but the mechanism is sometimes exploited by hackers for malicious software.

  If you are not sure whether a file is part of the malware, order the contents of the folder by date modified I wrote in step 2, no name. Malicious files will be grouped together. There could be more than one such group, if you attacked more than once. A file dated far in the past is not part of the malware. A folder in date dated Middle an obviously malicious cluster is almost certainly too malicious.

  If the files come back after you remove the, they are replaced by others with similar names, then either you didn't start in safe mode or you do not have all the. Return to step 1 and try again.

  Step 4

  Reset the home page in each of your browsers, if it has been modified. In Safari, first load the desired home page, then select

  ▹ Safari preferences... ▹ General

  and click on

  Set on the current Page

  If you use Firefox or Chrome web browser, remove the extensions or add-ons that you don't know that you need. When in doubt, remove all of them.

  The malware is now permanently inactivated, as long as you reinstall it never. A few small files will be left behind, but they have no effect, and trying to find all them is more trouble that it's worth.

  Step 5

  The malware lets the web proxy discovery in the network settings. If you know that the setting was already enabled for a reason, skip this step. Otherwise, you should undo the change.

  Open the network pane in system preferences. If there is a padlock icon in the lower left corner of the window, click it and authenticate to unlock the settings. Click the Advanced button, and then select Proxies in the sheet that drops down. Uncheck that Auto Discovery Proxy if it is checked. Click OK, and then apply.

  Step 6

  This step is optional. Open the users and groups in the system preferences and click on the lock icon to unlock the settings. In the list of users, there may be some with random names that have been added by the malware. You can remove these users. If you are not sure whether a user is legitimate, do not delete it.

• Tried to change the desktop image and lost all of them.

  iPhoto was opened I was looking for an image specific, but also decided that it would be a good idea to multi-task with my iMac and tried to change the image of the desktop at the same time. Apparently, it wasn't the best idea. While seeking photos through system preferences, a pop-up asked if I wanted to pass something. I'll tell you... I didn't read entirely, but thought that he wanted to reopen iPhoto in System Preferences, since I had the app open on its own. I clicked 'OK', which seems to be the point of civilization to collapse, as it appears that I lost all the photos stored in my iPhoto library! What I did and how can I fix? Everyone?

  Hold down the option key while launching iPhoto and using more select Library window select the correct iPhoto library

  If somehow you deleted it (nothing you described in your question can result in the deletion of the iPhoto library) and then restore your backup iPhoto library until you have removed

• After leaving the screen saver, display shuts off and change to select the user account screen

  I have a windows7 32 bit desktop. While everything works fine the problem is whenever I leave the keyboard and mouse intact even for one minute, the display turns off and change to select the screen of the user. 'Disable the display' and "put the computer to sleep" has been on 'never' and screen saver changed nothing but the problem still persists.

  Please provide the solution

  Hi Sam,

  Sorry for the late reply.

  I understand that when your computer is left idle, the select user screen appears.

  The issue can be caused if the power plan settings are incorrect.

  To get a better understanding of the issue, I want to know:

  1. What is the brand and model of your computer?
  2. You did it changes on your computer before this problem?

  To resolve the problem, try the following methods:

  Method 1: Troubleshooting to be able to run.

  The resolution of the problems of power check things as settings timeout of your computer, which determines how long the computer waits before turning off the display or enter the mode 'sleep'. These settings can help you save energy and extend the life of the battery in your computer.

  After trying method 1, if the problem persists, try Method 2.

  Note: When you're done, restart your computer and check if your computer works fine. If the problem persists, try Method 2.

  Method 2: Change the screensaver settings.

  Bridge continues to change the selection of the sort each time that I reopen it the Bridge window... WHY?

  I continue to get "sort by modified date" but each whenever I open it a window that it is for manual selection.

  Well, I solved the puzzle myself.

  I noticed that somehow a stray .psd file was stuck in my side bar of the Mac Finder.  Don't ask me how it got there.

  At the beginning I couldn't delete it – until I tried a Mac forum and they suggested I hold down the command key and drag it off... to poof!

  It worked.

  And when I went back to bridge - now the bad behavior disappeared!  And when I close the window Bridge and reopen - the choice to "classify" same home!

  Yay... it's a small step for me, and one small step for computerkind.
