For a few days i've been having this problem with pop-up ads on every site i visit. Here is a example of the ad on an apple.com page.
i'm using Google Chrome. Today I deleted 'yontoo add-on' but the problem persists.
Searching for Coupon Drop Down on my computer yields no results.
What can I do to make it go away?
MacBook Air (13-inch Late 2010), Mac OS X (10.6.8), using Google Chrome browser
Ok, i solved the problem!
Turns out it was an add-on/extension in my browser causing the problem.
It was colled "torrent handler" and I deleted it, now the pop-ups are gone!
Yay!
It was not in any of my add-ons, but I got rid of it by doing a Resert of Firefox following these directions:
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. Note: This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.
To Reset Firefox do the following:
Further information can be found in the Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems article.
Preferences>extensions worked a treat.
Thankyou all, you are wonderful!
hey I also met this situation, so annoying. Thanks for all your help guys! I successfully remove this annoying application 😀
How do you actualy delete the add on ? all the others have the option to "disable or remove" - but this problem only allows you to "disable".
I am running Firefox.
If you're running CHROME, the solution is here:
1. Go to the three lines marker on the upper right of the Chrome page
2. Go to "Tools."
3. Go to "Extensions."
4. Delete Torrent Handler
5. Delete Yontoo
Ok the definitely solution for Firefox:
go in /Users/youruser/Library/Application Support/Mozilla/Extensions
not in
/Users/youruser/Library/Application Support/Firefox...
and there you can find all CouponDropDown or something like tath, delete them...
For Lion users with Safari 6, it WILL be gone, this hellish problem, if you simply:
1) Open Safari preferences. NOT Safari extensions under rge pull down.
2) Hilight the extension called TorrentHandler. You don't need it anyway. (sorry)
3) Remove it from your life by uninstalling it with the little "uninstall" button.
Now go back to a page where it got bad, and it will be gone.
it helped me totally! I was like those ugly annoucement inside my computer with belly dancers, how to lose pounds. Terrible and they were in local language (brazilian Portuguese). Now IM FREE!! THANK YOU!
THANK YOU SO MUCH I HAVE HAD THIS PROBEM FOR AGES AND I JUST FIXED IT
Thanks! I've been annoyed by this for months!
Hi! Sorry for bothering, but when i click on extensions nothing is showing up. Like it's completely blank.. What should I do? I use Safari!
Thanks for helping
You click on "Safari" at top bar. Then u click on " Preferences", then click on Extension, you must see that "Torren..." there
I'm having the same problem in Safari6. Although when I go to Safari Preferences and select Extensions, the "TorrentHandler" extension is not there. Any other suggestions? This is driving me crazy, it's on my work computer.
I found my problem. The Extension in question is named "SaveKeep". Go to Safari/Preferences/Extensions and this should be yet another Extension name to look for. Do an Uninstall. The ads went away.
I am running OS X 10.7.5 and use Chrome. I cannot find torrent handler or yontoo annywhere. Not listed in extensions, and I can't find anything on the HD either. Coupon Drop Down is driving me nuts! Can anyone help?
How do I remove 'CouponDropDown' from my Mac (Snow Leopard)
