    Go step by step and test.

     

     

    1. Download  free AdwareMedic by clicking “Download ” from here

     

        http://www.adwaremedic.com

     

       Install , open,  and run it by clicking “Scan for Adware” button   to remove adware.

     

       Once scanning and removing the adware is done, quit the app by clicking AdMedic in the menubar

     

        and selecting “Quit AdwareMedic”.

     

    Safari

     

    2. Safari > Preferences > Extensions

     

        Turn those off and relaunch Safari again.

     

    3. Safari > Preferences > Privacy > Cookies and other website data:

     

        Press “Remove all website data” button.
