Hi, can anyone tell me how to uninstall spyhunter/MacVx software...?
These pop-up ad's drives me mad...!
Thanks!
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.2)
You installed the "VidX" trojan, perhaps under a different name. To remove it, first open the Applications folder by selecting
Go ▹ Applications
from the Finder menu bar, or by pressing the key combination shift-command-A. Look for an item named "VidX," "MacVx," or similar. If present, drag it to the Trash and empty.
From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Uninstall any extension you don't know you need. If in doubt, remove all of them. You may well have more than one that's adware or spyware.
Thanks to cbx4evr I had the same issue as you and found the Macfest in my Safari Extensions. - Gone now - Great job 🙂
OMG, this is why my safari got really2 slow (and busy all the time!) argghh..
when i just uninstall the extension, the ads still there. i can't find the macvx in my application folder, so i just uninstall my adobe, and surprisingly the ads gone!
