How can I remove chum research Malware on my Mac
How can I remove chum research Malware on my Mac
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.
VSearch malware tries to hide by varying names of the files it installs. To remove it, you must first identify the naming model.
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/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. The files that belong to an instance of VSearch will have the same date of change within about a minute, so they will be grouped together when you sort the folder this way, which makes them easy to identify.
Search in the folder with the name of all these forms:
com.something.daemon.plist
com.something.Helper.plist
com.something .net - preferences.plist
Here, something is a string, which may be different in each instance of VSearch random meaningless. So far it has always been an alphanumeric string without punctuation signs, such as "disbalance" or "thunderbearer."
You may have more than one copy of the malware, with different values of something.
There may be one or more files with the name of this form:
com.somethingelseUpd.plist
where George can be an empty string of sense that something different. Yet once, there may be more than one file of this type, with different values of Gisele.
Here is a typical example of an infection VSearch:
com.disbalance .net - preferences.plist
com.thunderbearerUpd.plist
You will have files with similar names, but probably not identical to these.
If you feel confident that you have identified the files above, drag only the files - nothing - to the trash. You may be prompted for administrator login password. Close the Finder window.
2. open this folder as in step 1:
/Library/LaunchAgents
Move to the trash all the files with the name of the form
com.something.agent.plist
where something is one of the strings that you found in step 1. There may be not all of these files.
3. If you have whatever it is moved to the trash in step 1 and step 2, restart the computer and empty the trash.
Do not remove the folder 'LaunchAgents' or "LaunchDaemons", or anything else inside of one or the other, unless you know you have another type of unwanted software and more VSearch. Records are a normal part of Mac OS X. The terms "agent" and "demon" is a reference to a program that starts automatically. This is not inherently bad, but the mechanism is sometimes exploited by hackers for malicious software.
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
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.
5. If you do not find the files or you are not sure about the identification, after what you have found.
If in doubt, or if you have no backups, change nothing at all.
6. the penalty may have started when you have downloaded and run an application called 'MPlayerX' or "PDF Pronto." If there is an element with a name in the Applications folder, delete it.
This Trojan horse is often found on the illegal Web sites that traffic in content such as movies pirated. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit these Web sites and follow the instructions to install the software, you can expect more of the same and worse, to follow. Never install software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or which has been downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
In the aspect of security & confidentiality of system preferences, select the general tab. The marked anywhere radio button should not be selected. If this is the case, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, and then select an other keys. After that, do not ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown Director.
Then, still in system preferences, open the pane of the App Store or software update and check the box marked
Install the system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later version)
or
Automatically download the updates (OS X 10.9 or earlier version)
If it is not already done.

When I link to my html main project file A and then click a link to return to the main html table component file contents/index/search remains on the screen. How can I remove it?
I work with RH8 and Windows 7. I generate Webhelp.
I have a file that has links to projects and B main html. Each project is in a separate folder. The projects are not merged.
I can link the files generated or published very well. However, when I start moving around in the files/projects, the components of the table of contents/index/search are still visible.
For example, if I click on the link on the main html file for project A it appears correctly. If I click on a link to return to the main html file pane table of contents/index/search remains visible for A project. If the link to go to project B Iclick, I get another part of the table of contents/index/search and have 2 panels visible.
How can I make windows disappear and do not stay on the screen when I move a project to?
Thanks for the help.
Pat
I'm not sure you can. It's like any link on any Web site, if the link opens another browser instance or tab, it is up to the user to close.
Merged help would just open the other topic and keep the user in the same tab. When they click on the links to various projects, the first topic closed and the following would open up.

I've added a security certificate exemption for a Web site earlier today.
However I have more want this exemption and would like the site is blocked when it has an invalid certfificate.
How can I remove the exemption so that the site becomes blocked again because of invalid certificate?
Those listed here:

Note that those with ' * ' for the server are included with Firefox disable these certificates you can ignore them.

How can I remove ad.yieldmanager in firefox 12.0
How can I remove ad.yieldmanager.com in firefox 12.0 that I went to tools, options, privacy, use of the custom settings for history and then added exceptions "ad.yieldmanager.com" must be blocked. Cleaned all cookies. It always appears when I connect on Firefox, just below my toolbars. I ran Avast Antivirus, Malwarebytes, Spyware Terminator 2012 and it did not help either.
If I have understood correctly, you are referring to the status bar (the little box in the corner of the window that is displayed when the page load).
Blocking cookies has no effect on connections to Web sites.
Install the Adblock Plus extension, and then subscribe to any general of ad-blocking, for example EasyList.
Alternatively, if you want to just block this particular field, install the BlockSite extension.

How can I remove yahoo from firefox?
I downloaded a screensaver and after installing it I'm done with a Yahoo Search page whenever I start Firefox.
It is not in my plugins or addons so I can't remove it there.
It is not in my list of installed programs so I can't uninstall it.I reinstalled Firefox and it's still there.
How can I remove it?Hi gunnermac,
You should take a look at the Knowledge Base How to set the home pagearticle. Your home page might have been changed by a particular site. Sites like MSN, Yahoo, etc. have been ask to become your homepage.
There are the steps in this article to reset your preferences on the default home page. I would try everything first to clear all strangeness. If it works, you can try to set your homepage again to your personal preferences.
If Yahoo has been set as the default search in the search bar, you should take a look in the Knowledge Base using the search in Firefox bararticle.
If the address bar search has been changed, so you can take a look at Search the Web from the address bar.
If this does not work, you should look the article How to fix preferences that will not save.
Finally, your problem may be because you have been hit by some malware.
Hope this helps!

"MegaBackup" is an application of unworthy of trust-storage cloud or perhaps real malware. I have not tried to make this distinction. To remove it, please start back up all the data (not with the MegaBackup himself, of course). Then take the steps below.
1 Select the elements of the connection tab in the users pane and groups of system preferences. Remove all elements with a name starting in 'MegaBackup '.
2 log off or restart the computer.
3. slide the MegaBackup application in the Applications to the trash and empty folder.
Note that you cannot delete any application trying to drag its icon from the LaunchPad or the Dock. You must open the Applications folder in the Finder.
You may have installed ad-injection with MegaBackup malware. If you don't see unaccustomed pop-up in a web browser, ask for additional instructions.
