Help!! Any one i have Vimax ***** enlargement ads appearing on safari

I have never visited this site and yet their ads keep appearing on nearly every page I open. I have noticed that these ads will never appear on apples own site but on all others like msn facebook etc i can b 100% sure that they will appear.
I called the apple support site and spoke to some guy who never had a clue. Does any one know how to sort this?

I tried doing this, but every time I attempt to do something in the Network section of System Preferences, a pop-up message comes up saying "Your network settings have been changed by another application." And I have to press OK, but then it immediately pops up again, effectively preventing me from doing anything, including following these instructions. I also ran the tool you recommended to kill a trojan horse, but after initially telling me that it had detected a trojan horse, a new thing popped up and told me nothing had been detected. What should I do?

  • Help: Any one can advice, CVI software is using Big or little endian?

    Help: Any one can advice, CVI is using Big or little endian? 
    or is depend on the processors my HW is using?

    The correct answer it the third one: CVI adapts to the hardware architecture you are running on. In the Programmer's Toolbox you have functions to detect the hardware architecture: HostIsBigEndian and HostIsLittleEndian. In the group you have functions to convert data between architectures.
    Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.

  • My safari browser seems to have been taken over by a malicious program called only-search.  Does any one know how to uninstall this program from safari?  I am running osX 10.10.

    My safari browser seems to have been taken over by a malicious program called only-search.  Does any one know how to uninstall this program from safari?  I am running osX 10.10.

    There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
    You may have installed the "VSearch" trojan. Remove it as follows.
    Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. These instructions are valid as of now, as far as I know. They won't necessarily be valid in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for more recent discussions or start a new one.
    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Step 1
    From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including any that have the word "Spigot," "Trovi," or "Conduit" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
    Reset the home page and default search engine in all the browsers, if it was changed.
    Step 2
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "com.vsearch.agent.plist" selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
    Repeat with each of these lines:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.daemon.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.helper.plist
    Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
    /Library/Application Support/VSearch
    /System/Library/Frameworks/VSearch.framework
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ConduitNPAPIPlugin.plugin
    Some of these items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
    The problem may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
    This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow.
    You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the Internet criminal behind VSearch has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • My itunes wont open it tells me that my itunes library was updated by a newer version on itunes but my software is uptodate any one else have this prob?

    my itunes wont open it tells me that my itunes library was updated by a newer version on itunes but my software is uptodate any one else have this prob?

    Look under your Start Menu for Apple Software Update, but before doing that, check the time and date on your computer that it's correct.
    It's also saying the iTunes Library .XML file in your iTunes Folder file is new, for some reason, but your songs should be still in the iTunes Folder.
    You can move the XML file out and restart iTunes and it shoudl creat another, you lose your playlists and have to import all your music again.

  • For some strange reason the songs in my library are multiplying. For example, I really only have 4,000 songs but every time I open itunes I have 6,8,10,000 songs! Any one else have this problem.  How do I stop that from happening?

    For some strange reason the songs in my library are multiplying. For example, I really only have 4,000 songs but every time I open itunes I have 6,8,10,000 songs! Any one else have this problem.  How do I stop that from happening?  I keep having to delete my library!

    This "original file cannot be found" thing happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

  • Does any one else have issues with Safari 5.0.6 and memory usage and bug reports?

    Hey Everyone
    I have an iMac 7,1 desktop and for year it had gotten me through a lot. I have noticed in the past year My iMac has been slower than usual and I have doen what I can to speed it up. The main issue is Safari 5.0.6 becuase it's using 50% of my memory(4gb) and now it doesn't report any bugs to apple.
    Can any one help explain this?

    Flash has nothing to do with your download speed nor wireless.  It's just a Internet plug-in (and preference pane).  You are using an old version. Flash's current "stable" version is 11.1.102.55 and beta 11.2.202.197.  You can get the stable version from Adobe by going through here.  You can get that or the beta by going through macupdate.com.

  • Does any one else have issues with the lack of properly trained reps ?

    I've been a subscriber to verizon services for just under a year now and have been repeatedly disappointed by the " tech support" and " customer service " departments .   I purchased a new droid xt912 (razr) and it worked great for a month or two then started having issues  with random shutdowns and screen possessions icons randomly appearing and disappearing  ringers changing on their own silent mode turning on and off by itself etc..  my inital thought was that it was a dl'd app that was causing the problems so i reset the phone to out of the box status and went for a week with no downloads or apps beyond the pre installed bloatware and started experiencing the same issues . I contacted cust service who then referred me to  the laughable excuse for tech support  who's only advice was reset it when i advised them I'd already done the reset they seem stunned that I being a lowly customer would know how to do that and advised me that there wasn't much else they could do but file and insurance claim  and send me out a refurbished phone of the exact make and model.  I declined after reading multiple reviews about this phone and the multitude of issues it possess  and inquired about the possibility of allowing me to upgrade early and was told no under no circumstances would i be allowed to upgrade to a different phone.   fast forward a couple of months I find out about the activation of the " edge " program and inquired with my local sales rep about the possibility of ditching this ****** razr for a different device and the ill trained and very ill informed rep told me that i qualified for the program no problem and  I started the process  and after almost an hour of my day later was told that no i couldn't use the program  because i was already an active customer and wouldn't be eligible to even apply for it  until my existing contract was expired  at which point it would be really stupid on my part to renew into what is  basically a lease program when i would be due to  upgrade normally anyhow .  I'm happy with the actual service ( when my device works properly ) but am seriously considering changing to a slower network once my contract is done just because of the inferior  service .  I know it seems like i may be whining just a bit but after several months of incompetent help bad answers and outright lies I'm at a loss as to if i may be the only one that has these issues .  So if any one has had similar issues and has had them resolved i would so like to know

    I have accepted that I am stuck with this device as i do not want a direct product replacement I've been to  many of the global community forums and read about the product wide disaster this phone has been.   My issue is more with the seeming disregard for customer loyalty and respect for the consumer  who for lack of a better way of putting it pays the companies bills and employees salaries .  Denying existing customers access to programs such as the " edge" program and the lack of intelligent answers to simple questions is a gigantic slap in the face to the consumer who despite other options has chosen to lock in with verizon. I guess more to the point it seems the company is more interested in obtaining newer customers then maintaining long term repeat customers . maybe i'm a bit archaic in my line of thought but better the reliable source of income then the gamble and it seems Verizon doesn't share that thought

    my browser most of the times show up ads like mackeeper or something when i select something.....it occurs almost overtime i select anything and its very annoying and disturbing...kindly help me a way to stop those ads....i have already downloaded ad block from safari extensions but still no use of it...

    Hello gowthamappleboy,
    If you are seeing pop ups all the time and even have the option to block those pop ups, then take a look at the article below to walk you through checking the settings in Safari to remove them. If everything looks good, there are some additional steps to help remove items that may have been installed with other software that you have downloaded previously.
