Zlob DNS Changer problem
Hi there,
Every time I google somthing in any internet browser, and I click on the link, I get redirected to other search engines via a site called copy-book.com. I've heard that the problem (virus) is called Zlob DNS Changer. I've looked on other Zlob removal pages, but they are all for Windows operating systems and I don't know how to remove it with my Mac! It's driving me insane and my internet is so slow now. Can anyone help please?!
Will
P.S.
If this help, here is some solution someone posted in another forum but It didn't really help me.
"Alright so I had this and I think I have managed to fixed it. What I had was a DNS changer Trojan that was able to hack into my router and change my DNS so that when I used google it redirected me. I was redirected by wierd IP addresses and copybook as well. What you need to do is check your DNS and if it starts with 85. you could have the same problem.
