Hello recently my IMac has been showing strange Adds on YouTube and try's to redirect me to a weird website that when I google it it had shown that the website was malware! Is there a way to fix this?
iMac (27-inch Mid 2011), OS X Mavericks (10.9.4)
Malware but easy to remove ...
Download and run the adware removal tool here > The Safe Mac » Adware Removal Guide
Safe and only takes a minute or two.
I did it, but the adds are still there, I'm 17 and I'm not well educated when it comes to viruses so i do apologize!
Restart your Mac
Please post a representative screenshot of what you're experiencing:
Screenshots (Mac):
To take a screenshot hold ⌘ Shift 4 to create a selection crosshair. Click and hold while you drag the crosshair over the area you wish to capture and then release the mouse or trackpad. You will hear a "camera shutter" sound. This will deposit a screenshot named "Screen Shot...." followed by a date and time on your Desktop.
When you post your response, click the "camera" icon above the text field.
This will display a dialog box which enables you to choose the screenshot file (remember it's on your Desktop) and click the Insert Image button. If you are not using full screen mode you can simply drag the image into the text entry field.
⌘ Shift 4 and then pressing the space bar captures the frontmost window.
⌘ Shift 3 captures the entire screen.
Don't capture or upload any information you consider personal. To edit an existing screenshot, read How to edit a screenshot.
Drag the screenshot to the Trash after you post your reply.
I have fixed the problem, thanks!
My Mac I think has a a Virus!
