Mar 25, 2016 7:13 AM in response to steve1180by JimmyCMPIT,Malwarebytes for mac works without having to resort to posting log files and anciently deleting something that didn't need to be removed.
it's free it's easy to use, it does what it says (get rid of malware, not prevents) and the company has years of respect from the Windows IT community.
It is NOT mac Anti Virus and does not in any way similar to a resident application that watches interactions of your OS.
it has also gained a tremendous amount of popularity on the forums by users who have tried it and found it works and does not cause problems indicative of Mac Anti Virus packages, which should not be used and this product should not be lumped in with.

If that doesn't work, disconnect from the Internet, go to Safari/History and delete the website. Quit and reopen with the shift key held down.

Mar 27, 2016 8:47 AM in response to Eric Rootby steve1180,Thank you, Eric. I tried it, but couldn't delete that website. I think it's a sponsor of my VPN Hotspot Shield.
I may have found a solution. In browsing Safari Extensions from the menu, I saw Ad Block. I installed it after making a donation and I haven't seen the Techbrowsing tab since. Wanted to thank you for you suggestion even though I couldn't make it work.
