i somehow got the playsearchnow malware set to my homepage in safari. I have removed the extension, could not find an app to delete, searched the Library/launch applications, ran malwarebytes and removed what it found. Deleted the trash/history. All the steps I can find here for how to get rid of it. It's not on my computer but I still can't change my homepage back to normal. Any ideas?
