I was using google on Safari and suddenly I got a warning window saying that I was redirected to possible phishing site that would compromise my computer. and the window included a toll-free number to call (which I did not call). I quit Safari, came back on and I still got the phishing warning.
What do I do now?
MacBook Air (13-inch Mid 2012), Yosemite
Clear your browser cache.
how do I clear the browser cache?
I cannot access Safari preferences to clear the cache. where else can I find it?
Quit Safari and relaunch it while holding down the shift key. This will close previously opened windows.
Clear the cache under the Safari menu.
Safari/Preferences/Advanced - enable the Develop menu, then go there and Empty Caches.
Thank you!! done. Everything looks good now
Thank you! This allowed me to access preferences.
You are welcome.
