Helpful Links Regarding Malware Problems
If you are having an immediate problem with ads popping up see The Safe Mac » Adware Removal Guide and The Safe Mac » Adware Removal Tool. Open Safari, select Preferences from the Safari menu. Click on Extensions icon in the toolbar. Disable all Extensions. If this stops your problem, then re-enable them one by one until the problem returns. Now remove that extension as it is causing the problem.
An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
Also, visit The XLab FAQs and read Detecting and avoiding malware and spyware.
See these Apple articles:
Mac OS X Snow Leopard and malware detection
OS X Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
OS X Mountain Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
OS X Mavericks- Protect your Mac from malware
About file quarantine in OS X
If you require anti-virus protection Thomas Reed recommends using ClamXAV. (Thank you to Thomas Reed for this recommendation.)
From user Joe Bailey comes this equally useful advice:
The facts are:
1. There is no anti-malware software that can detect 100% of the malware out there.
2. There is no anti-malware that can detect anything targeting the Mac because there
     is no Mac malware in the wild, and therefore, no "signatures" to detect.
3. The very best way to prevent the most attacks is for you as the user to be aware that
     the most successful malware attacks rely on very sophisticated social engineering
     techniques preying on human avarice, ****, and fear.
4. Internet popups saying the FBI, NSA, Microsoft, your ISP has detected malware on
    your computer is intended to entice you to install their malware thinking it is a
    protection against malware.
5. Some of the anti-malware products on the market are worse than the malware
    from which they purport to protect you.
6. Be cautious where you go on the internet.
7. Only download anything from sites you know are safe.
8. Avoid links you receive in email, always be suspicious even if you get something
    you think is from a friend, but you were not expecting.
9. If there is any question in your mind, then assume it is malware.

How do I stop popup ads in Safari 8.0?

Recently it seems that there is a sudden increase in popup ads appearing in Safari. Each one has an "x" that allows it to be deleted, but they keep happening much more often than they used to. Is there some setting I can make that will block popup ads?

There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
You may have installed one or more of the common types of ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it. It's been reported that some variants of the "VSearch" malware block access to the page. If that happens, start in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime, then try again.
Back up all data before making any changes.
One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, ask for further instructions.
Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. It may have come from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
Malware is also found on websites that traffic in pirated content such as video. 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. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
or
Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
if it's not already checked.

How can I block inappropriate ads?

There are inappropriate ads that are on websites that I frequently use. These ads did not use to pop up. how can I block these?

Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer. 
Please scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

How to print uspto patent images using Safari and Quicktime

3/18/06
Do you want to know how to print US patent images using Safari? Read on.
When you access the "images" link of a specific patent on the www.uspto.gov/ website using Safari, the page you are viewing is only one small upper left tile of a huge patent image that is not sized to the screen. You can scroll and try to read the page but it's almost impossible. Try to print it out and you only print what's on the screen. Bummer.
The fix:
Place the cursor on the opened image (it may appear blank), hold down the CONTROL key on you keyboard and click on the image. Two instructions come up. Click on the "Save Image to the Desktop" instruction and a DImg.tiff file will be created on your desktop. Click on the .tiff file and it should open in the Preview program, then simply print out the image. Voila!!!!
Click the yellow arrow in the left margin to access page 2 of the patent and repeat the previous instructions to create another .tiff file on your destop. Do every page and you'll have the patent available to print out one page at a time.
You can then rename the files and create a folder for that specific patent so you can access it later without signing onto uspto site.
It's odd that the ever compatible Apple does not provide seamless compatibility to view and print patent images on the US Patent and Trademark Office's website. Where would they be without protecting their own intellectal property? Let's hope the next version of Quicktime includes the appropriate ITU T.6 or CCITT Group 4 (G4) compression language.
Even the "throw it out the Windows" operating system is up to speed on this issue for America's hard working inventors.
Keep on inventing.

Yesterday my ipod touch 4g would connect and to wifi and i was able to go on safari and search etc. but last night at 11 pm it would say that it was connected to wifi but wouldn't connect to safari it would say request timed out

it would say request timed out so i restored my ipod erased and reset it hoping it would delete the problem but it was still there it says that it is connected to wifi but will not launch safari and will bring up that message request timed out. itunes app store anything that uses internet/wifi will not work. it is not in airplane mode and wifi is on. i also forgot to mention this but it would also sometimes say that it is not connected to the internet even though i have 3 bars of wifi.

The router itself will always be sending a signal to devices connected to it. The router could not even be connected to your modem and it will still show that you have a connection on your device. Check your router config, reset it, and if all fails, contact your internet service provider.

How To Block YouTube Ads In Safari 5.x (Solution)

In Safari Ver 5.x running in Snow Leopard one of the most annoying things is the fact that the AdBlock extension while doing a good job simply doesn't block those annoying banner/ pop up ads in YouTube videos...
Happily it's now easy to fix with the following solution...
You will need or probably already have installed the AdBlock extensions for Safari if not you can find it here...
https://extensions.apple.com/
Now you will also need "GlimmerBlocker" which can be found here...
http://glimmerblocker.org/
(download the version fos OX 10.6 Version 1.4.16 for Safari 5 on Snow Leopard)
Simply download and install "Glimmer Blocker" which will set up a new "Preference Pane" for you...
Click on the "Glimmer Blocker" preference pane and then select "Filters" from the tab bar...
Un-tick/ deselect all the boxes in the "Filters" section then click on the "+" sign below the "Filters" window to add a new filter...
Give the filter a name (I simply called it YouTube)...
(Make sure only the new filter you create is ticked - you don't need the rest if your using "AdBlock" as well)
Now in the "Rules" window below click on the "+" sign below that to add a new rule...
Now simply set it up as shown in the following picture and click on "Save"...
(The most important bit to set is the "Host" section which must be set to "is in domain" and using "2mdn.net" in the text field)
Now you will find all those annoying pop up banner ads in YouTube videos are gone for good...
I suppose you could just use "Glimmer Blocker" as your only "Ad Blocker" but I prefer to use "AdBlock" as it's smaller and uses less resources but with "Glimmer Blocker" installed as well it finally means that you can get rid of YouTube video ads too when using Safari 5.x & Snow Leopard....
Tested on an iMac 27" i5 running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and Safari 5.1.7

Here's a list of "Rules" you can use in GlimmerBlocker to block those annoying in video adverts on "Vevo" and "Daily Motion"...
Just follow the same steps as I described earlier and in the "Host" option enter the following to set up new ad blocking rules...
To Block In Video Ads On Daily Motion...
1. Add a "Filter"and call it for example "Daily Motion Ad Blocker"...
2. Add a "Rule" and enter "fwmrm.net" (without the quotes) into the "Host:" field. Then Click on Save in the "Rule" window...
3. Add a "Rule" and enter "ad.auditude.com" (without the quotes) into the "Host:" field. Then Click on Save in the "Rule" window...
To Block In Video Ads On Vevo...
1. Add a "Filter"and call it for example "Vevo Ad Blocker"...
2. Add a "Rule" and enter "Video2AdRenderer.swf" (without the quotes) into the "Host:" field. Then Click on Save in the "Rule" window...
3. Add a "Rule" and enter "9cf9.v.fwmrm.net" (without the quotes) into the "Host:" field. Then Click on Save in the "Rule" window...
The above filter should block all those annoying in video ads on both Vevo and Daily Motion

How do i block xrated ads while surfing? i need to be kid friendly

I look up recent tv shows and movies and a lot of them are for my 7yr old. and on either side of the screen are pornographic ads that are videos and there's no way to make them go away, and without clicking on them a full screen ad will be popped up in the background. Please advise on how I can get rid of these ads. Thank you very much

Hello rerollins1017, the best is to use parental controls, see the next links for more information
