  • How do I remove a Blacole virus from my Mac?

    My MacKeeper picked up several JS/Blacole and JS/iFrame viruses on my Mac.  Any suggestions as to how I remove them?  I'm not sure how I got them but they show up every time I run the virus scan, even after quarantining them so I'm assuming I need to delete them somehow.   Also....any ideas where I got them?

  • How can I remove a Input device from my Mac?

    Hello, I would like to know how I can remove a input device from the Sound area in System Preferences. I installed Wiretap Anywhere a sound input program for my Mac and did not realize It was not supported for Moutain Lion. I put the application in the trash and then emptied the trash can. Now whenever I try to start GarageBand or a program like that it crashes my computer. In the Input tab of Sound (System Preferences) It is listed as Wiretap: System Audio.
    I would like to remove this from the Input tab so I can use my Mac reguarly. Any Ideas on how to fix it?
    Thanks,
    Justin

    Any third-party software that doesn't install by drag-and-drop into the Applications folder, and uninstall by drag-and-drop to the Trash, is a system modification.
    Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
    Here are some general guidelines. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickYourMac.” First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickyourmac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, contact the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickYourMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickYourMac.” If not, open “BrickYourMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button.
    You may have to log out or reboot in order to complete an uninstallation.
    If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase your boot volume and perform a clean reinstallation of OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
    Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" that purport to remove software.

  • How do you remove rival gaming virus from a mac

    I need to know how to remove the rival gaming virus from my mac

    There is no such virus for the Mac, unless it is literally brand-new.  See my Mac Malware Guide.
    What is telling you that you have such a virus?  If you have anti-virus software that is telling you it has found that virus, it is Windows malware that happens to be attached to an e-mail message or something, and as such, it cannot affect your Mac in any way.

    I hope somebody can help me out with this problem.

  • How can I remove the SearchAssist virus from my browser?

    My browser Firefox 23.0.1 is being affected by the SearchAssist virus. I need instructions on how to remove it manually.

    Here is the ONLY way to get rid of it. first this thing is dl'd if you make a misclick on an infected website also from pop-ups. I just figured out how to get rid of it today and I have seen immediate improvement in my computer and browsers performance.
    Attn people, Go through your program (add/remove is easiest) files looking specifically looking for a program called Sendori, made by Sendori Inc. if you have it you ARE at risk. this is a PUP (potentially Unwanted Program). This program is known also as a browser hijacker also classifies as adware and malware.
    The symptoms of an infection are underlined words on web pages, slow and lagged web browsers. adds that popup on the pages when you mouse over the underlined words. this program is also known to exploit your firewall and open ports for potential viruses and hackers. it took me almost 6 months to pinpoint the infection and the "application" that it was downloaded with. Misclicks can cost you alot. if you have this program you need to remove it ASAP! also remove all registry entries with a trusted cleaner tool I personally use CCleaner (crap cleaner).
    from there you NEED to reset your browser or it will come back and it will drive you insane. every browser has a specific way of doing it but they are all similar, you will loose your addons like scriptish and other things like that. you keep your favorites and cookies, but everything is reset. problem fixed. you win.

  • How can i remove samsungs "SPanel" definitely from my mac?

    Hello!
    My macbook pro has a "virus" called "SPanel". It needs almost 100% of the cpu time and shortens my battery-runtime drastically.
    Who can help me to get rid of this samsung-virus?

    From a Google search:
    If you re-run the installer package and choose "uninstall" from the drop down menu instead of "easy install" you should be able to uninstall the files. However, the SPanel folder will remain in your root Library folder. You can keep it or trash it.
    Try it and see...

  • How do I remove Quick Time 7 from my mac?

    How about that QT that comes with Snow Leopard, is there a real need for two versions of the software to be installed?
    QT is a "structure" integrated into the operating system. Removing it will likely corrupt the whole OS. As to Snow Leopard, there is only one QT "structure" embedded in the system. What you really have is two different player versions (QT X and QT 7) which actually access the same embedded routines. Removing the QT 7 Player would likely not cause any problems, but why bother. Simply leave it in your Utilities folder in case you ever want to use it or upgrade it to QT 7 Pro to access the extra features not accessible via any other Apple multimedia application/utility. You don't ever have to use it if you don't want to do so.

    Hallo an alle,
    Ich habe mir einen Virus eingefangen, serve.bannersdontwork, auf Safari.
    Alle 8-20 clicks öffnet sich diese Seite "serve.bannersdontwork" und leitet mich auf andere weiter.
    Über mein Antivirusprogramm Avira konnte ich den Virus nicht beheben.
    Auch die erweiterung AdBlock hilf hier nicht weiter.
    Wer weiß, oder hat eine Ahnung, wie man diesen Virus wieder los wird?
    Danke schonmal im voraus!!

    Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
    If you wish, you may be able to salvage the errant extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support.
