I have got a virus on my computer, started on Safari with search pulse. I am purchased Antivirus X-Out and installed. It says it is clean. But it still remains on Safari. What type of utility can I purchase to remove this?

It's more likely that you have adware rather than a virus. Still it's no fun.
Give Malwarebytes a shot. It's a free download and pretty well respected around here.
Before you install it, however, uninstall the Antivirus x-Out.
Having multiple antivirals or anti malware programs installed at the same time may cause their own set of issues.
Post back here if you need additional assistance.
