What is i.simpli.fi and how do i get rid of it?

seems to be some adware/malware that captures where I go on the net. it slows down page loading significantly. Every time I click a link or renew a page it shows in the lower left hand corner ("connecting i.simpli.fi").
How can I get rid of it?
I am running firefox 21.0.
Thanks.

  • What is the file attribute @ and how can I get rid of it

    I converted some wav files using Roxio Toast 11 and the output AIF files have a '@' in the file permissions and are not displayed in Finder. What does the '@' mean and how can I get rid of it. Would love to know why Toast adds it but I posted a question on Roxio's site and hopefully will get an answer to that.
    thanks for the help

    okay, so I yes, it does indicate extended attributes. I executed ls -l@ *.aif and got this

    I then did xattr -c *.aif to clear the extended attributes which got rid of the '@' but the files are still not being displayed in Finder.

  • What is JS.Agent-58 and how do I get rid of it?

    Hello.  I just ran a ClamXAv scan and it came up with a trojan called JS.Agent-58.  It's the weirdest thing because it is in a file I would never expect it to be in.  I buy a lot of things online and I do not print my receipts.  Instead I save them as PDF files.  The Trojan is in a Macy's PDF saved receipt from November.  I have no idea how it got there.  Anyway, if I delete the receipt, will that be enough.  Can somebody tell me what exactly this particular Trojan does and how to tell if it has been downloaded on my computer.  And, will someone tell me how to completely remove this Trojan from my computer, if it is indeed on my computer?  Please and Thank You.

    First a couple of tips:
    As I mentioned to the OP, for fastest, most efficient answers to questions such as this, visit the ClamXav Forum.
    Secondly, nobody but the OP and I will probably ever see your posting here. Only those who post or choose to follow a discussion will ever notice a new posting. For future issues, if you don't find the answer in an older discussion, then you will always be better off posting a new topic which will attract attention from other troubleshooters who are currently on line. That's just the way the forum works best.

    ClamXav has identified a virus which I seem to have gotten in August 2014 called JS Agent-58 that is NOT in my mail but is a Page.webarchive filename.  I have rescanned and had it quarantined but what do I do now and how did I get it in the first place?
    I would need to know where it came from originally in order to have any idea how you got it. That information may still be in you scan log, so here is how to find it:
    In ClamXav open the Scan Log by clicking the icon on the tool bar
    When the "clamXav-scan.log" (or "ClamXav-scan.log" for the App Store version) window opens, you will only be looking at the only the most recent results
    Select Find->Find from the Edit menu or type Command-F
    Type "FOUND" in all caps and without the quotes in the Find box
    Uncheck the "Ignore case" box and hit enter
    Click the "Next" button or type Command-G until you find what you are looking for
    If it doesn't show up in the most recent results, use the "▲ Earlier|" button in the lower right corner of the window to move back through the log.
    Copy the entire line and paste it into a reply back here.
    There is an easier way to do this using the Terminal app, but I would need to know which version of ClamXav (App Store or web site) you used to find it.
    Be sure you read general guidance in Dealing with infected files. Moving it to quarantine has disabled it. You should probably make sure this isn't a file you need before moving it to the Trash Can, but that would be next. It's always possible this is a false alarm, but I doubt it.
    Hopefully you have already read my analysis of what this is and understand there is close to zero chance it could affect your computer.

    My imac keeps giving me a spinning color wheel when i open and close applications and also when I am typing in programs. It happens and spins and then releases.

What could the problem be and how can I correct the problem?

  • What is "sessionstore.js.tmp" and how can I get rid of it?

    It's been happening ever since July 31st. Any time I start or re-start
    Firefox, or when it crashes and I have to open it back up, it completely
    reverts to my Firefox session from July 31st, and not the current session.
    An attempt to delete from my Firefox folder lead me to this message -
    "Cannot delete sessionstore.js: The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable."
    Is there anything I can do to get rid of this problem (read: any solution that isn't drastic).
    Many, many thanks in advance...

  • What is a "corrupt file" and how do I get rid of it?

    Thank you in advance for taking the time to read this and (hopefully) offering a solution! At the end of this past March, I purchased a new ASUS E4109 from Best Buy. It has been working great until 2 days ago when I turned it on. The black screen popped up stating that Windows had failed to run and I needed to install my installation disk (did this come with my laptop?). It gave the options of retrying in normal mode, safe mode, safe mode with networks, etc, etc. When I was finally able to load it in normal mode, it immediately told me I have some sort of corrupt file and need to run "CHKDSK" to repair. Hmmmm for starters, I dont even know what that means. Anyways, the bottom line is that something is wrong with it and I cant seem to figure out how to repair it without making another trip to BestBuy. I would SO greatly appreciate any suggestions to repair, as well as why this happened in the first place. I dont download anything out of the ordinary ( that I know of!) and I cant imagine what could have happened. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help me if you can.... it's a huge upset that I have a brand new laptop I cannot even use at the moment. I sincerely appreciate any help, suggestions, advice!! Thankyou, Whitney

    ASUS laptops do come with recovery discs. There should be two of them labeld as such.
    To do a disc check, open My Computer, right click on your C drive and select properties.
    Click on the Tools tab, and then check box "Automatically Fix Errors" and click Start. You'll most likely have to restart your computer for it to finish.
    Corrupted files can be caused by a lot of things, most commonly not shutting your laptop down correctly by just holding the power button. Viruses can also cause them but we'll go with the assumption that's not it for now.
    If you like my post, or solution to your issue/question, go ahead and click on the little star by my name and/or accept the post as the Solution. It makes me happy.
    I'm NOT an employee of Best Buy, or Geek Squad, though I did work as an Agent for a year 5 years ago. None of my posts are to be taken as the official stance that Best Buy will take on your situation. My advice is just that, advice.

  • I have a Ipod nano with only 128 songs (6mb) with no videos or anything but 128 songs..the ipod summary says i have 3.02GB of  "other"...what is this "other" stuff and how can i get rid of it so i can have more songs on my ipod?!

    ..

    The Other section on your iPod consists of a number of different things, including album artwork, your iPod's software, files you may be storing externally on it, games, and a few other things. However, it can usually include corrupt files from failed sync operations with iTunes.  Usually the Other section should only be a small fraction of what's stored on your iPod, usually less than 1 GB. 
    So it sounds like your iPod may be corrupt, in which case you'll need to connect it to iTunes and restore it to factory settings.

    when trying to download a c/d gracenotes comes on my top bar this seems to slow down my downloads what purpose does it serve and how do i get rid of it

    I believe you are ripping a CD (from a piece of plastic) not downloading from a site on the Internet.
    Gracenote is hte service that provides labels for your tracks when you insert the CD.  This information is not on the CD itself.
