How do I get rid of "Consumer group survey"?

I have some sort of bug that highlights words on an internet page like a hyperlink, when you hover the mouse over them it is some coupon that takes you to some survey and prize competition. I have cleared my history, but I don't know how to clear the cache or do whatever is required to get rid of it.
Any suggestions?
Cheers

Hi there, I am using a desktop Mac (imac?)
OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63b)
and Safari is my browser.
Thanks

  • How can I get rid of tab groups (not a button, but the feature itself)? Hate it. Thank you.

    I would like to have just tabs without groups, visible all at once, as we had it in previous firefox versions. I don't see any instructions/options. Please help.

    To uninstall Ask Toolbar program from your computer,click the Start button, click on Control Panel,the select Uninstall a program. Search and uninstall Ask Toolbar Updater and Ask Toolbar from your computer.
    Next you want to uninstall Ask from Firefox:
    * At the top of the Firefox window, click the orange Firefox button, then select Add-ons.
    * Select the Extensions tab, then remove Ask Toolbar and any other unknown extensions from Mozilla Firefox.
    * To reset your search engine and homepage to their default, you can use the SearchReset extension.This add-on is very simple: on installation, it backs up and then resets your search preferences and home page to their default values, and then uninstalls itself. This affects the search bar, URL bar searches, and the home page.
    **https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/searchreset/
    You can also use [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ ADWCleaner] to get rid of Ask's registry keys.
    Use the following scanners to make sure Ask is removed:

  • How do I get rid of group names

    How do I get rid  of group names in contacts, I seem to have loads of group names ??

    Those are not users. They're computers or printers on the network. Your Wi-Fi network may be insecure. Check the router settings to make sure you're using WPA 2 security, and if you are, change the password to a random string of at least ten upper- and lower-case letters and digits. Any password that you can remember is not good enough.

    Apple Portables: Troubleshooting the slot load optical disc drive

  • HT1379 How can I get rid of an unwanted message?

    When my system starts up I see a message that says, "The disc you inserted was not readable by this computer." I had an external DVD drive but detached it and it still gives me the message. The machine (a new iMac 27") doesn't even have a disc drive! How can I get rid of it?

    Does it happen if you boot with the Shift key held down to get into Safe Mode (if your keyboard is wireless, hold the Shift key after you hear the boot chimes and not before)? Additionally, try creating a new user account in the Users & Groups system preferences and then reboot and log into that account. When you do so, does the same message show up?

  • How do I get rid of "disk password" user?

    I recently reformatted my mid 2012 MBP with Yosemite 10.10.1 . I have FileVault enabled and under "Users / groups" > "display login window as" I checked "name and password". After checking that option I still have "Disk Password" display as a user to login with in addition to my regular user name. If click on "disk password user" I am able to get to a screen that will ask for my username and password. When I enter that information it will log me into my regular user name. How do I get rid of "disk password" user?

    The safest thing would be to deactivate FileVault and then reactivate it.

  • How do i get rid of an album that I synced to my phone

    how do i get rid of an album that I synced to my phone

    Oh, sorry....
    OK, let's start over....
    Hook your iPhone up to the computer and select the device when it appears in iTunes. Go to the Photo tab, and deselect the album then re-sync.
    You also can delete each picture in the Album one by one by going into the Photos icon on your iPhone, Select the Albums option, select the Album, and then when the pictures display, select Edit. Then you have to tap on each picture to delete it. Time consuming....easier to sync it with the computer, but a way to get rid of them temporarily. You still have to change your i-device photo profile in iTunes or it will download again in the next sync.
    Cheers,

  • How do I get rid of a "bot" on my Mac that is sending out erroneous emails to everyone in our address book?

    How do I get rid of a "bot" on my Mac that is sending out erroneous emails to everyone in our address book? 

    You will have to look around your machine & figure out the name of the program.
    try /application/utilities/activity monitor
    I recommend that you get a littlesnitch. littlesnitch will track your Web traffic and tell you which applications are sending data from your computer. Be sure to run it awhile because it will trigger a number of alerts. In trail mode, it will run for three hours per boot for a about a month.

    This list maybe different in your release of X.
    Check System Preferences>Accounts (Users & Groups in later OSX versions)>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
    Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
    Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...
