  • How do I rid of CouponDropDown malware?

    I was looking for a B-side mp3 album to buy online. I suppose it never released for purchase on major websites, because neither iTunes or Spotify had it available.
    So, I tried to find a download online (yes, mistake, I know). I downloaded something strange, thinking maybe I'd get the music, but no. Instead, after the download, a window in Safari popped up displaying "Age of Empires." I thought immediately that my homepage was hijacked, but after that, everything seemed fine. I tried another file with the supposed album in it, and it seemed to go through an install process...without actually installing anything, it simply had a few "Continue" options. Then it said "Successfully installed". Obviously, it wasn't the album.
    So now, I have a few weird Youtube ads next to the videos that seem strange. Also, for some reason in my emails and on other websites, there are randomly hyperlinked words. When I put my trackpad over the hyperlinked word, it says "ads by CouponDropDown" with some random ad. It seems Google Chrome also has the same problems as Safari.
    Is there anything that can remove this? I don't really want to pay money. I tried MacScan, but the free trial doesn't remove malware, it just scans and deletes cookies.
    Here is what I've done so far:
    Deleted cookies
    Removed all  downloaded material that brought about the malware
    Ran a full scan that detected 2 forms of spyware on my computer
    System:
    Macbook Pro
    Mac OS X
    10.8.1
    Has anyone experienced something like this before? Does it sound like malware, or something else? How should I rid of it?
    Thanks!

      Quit Safari.
      Hold the shift key down and relaunch Safari.
    Reset Safari.
    Click Safari in the menu bar.
    From the drop down select "Reset Safari".
    Uncheck the box next to  " Remove saved names and passwords".
    Click "Reset".
    Empty Caches
    Safari > Preference > Advanced
    Checkmark the box for "Show Develop menu in menu bar".
    Develop menu will appear in the Safari menu bar.
    Click Develop and select "Empty Caches" from the dropdown.
    Turn off Extensions if any, and launch Safari.

  • How To Get Off The Dime With WebLogic 8.1 Server

    I'm just getting started with WebLogic 8.1 and I'm already having an embarrassing problem. I'm running on Windoze XP.
    I've been to the docs and seen that I have two choices on how to start the server:
    (1) Navigate to the domain for an application and run the startWebLogic.cmd file,
    (2) Start->BEA WebLogic Platform 8.1->WebLogic Workshop 8.1->Tools->WebLogic Server->Start WebLogic Server
    The app I'm working on doesn't have a startWebLogic.cmd file. When I try to start it via Workshop, the "Start WebLogic Server" choice is grayed out. There are no messages in the log file to tell me why.
    What am I missing? I feel like the village eejit. Can a WebLogic guru get me off the mark? Thanks - %

    Hi Maris,
    Quite right, thank you. Thanks to some local help I've got this app up and running.
    I'm so used to the Tomcat model of putting everything in WAR and deploying simply by moving it into into the /webapps directory. I hand edit everything into my web.xml. I like that feeling of control. Wizards make me a bit nervous. I've got to get to that same level of comfort with WL.
    Just one way to do that: sit down and pore through the WL docs.

  • How to get rid of malware on Mac Pro

    I have a Mac Pro with the OS X Yosemite. My computer has malware on it. I keep getting popups and ads on my screen, whether I'm using Safari or Chrome. One of the popups says "Suspicious activity found on your computer, due to pop-up advertisement windows and invasive links. Please contact tech support at 1-866-215-6348." I want to know how to get rid of this malware. Thanks in advance.

    Some are persistent. Force quit Safari again. Disconnect from the Internet by either turning off Wi-Fi in the System Preferences, or unplugging the Ethernet cable from your router/modem. Hold the Shift key and launch Safari again. If the same popup appears, you will be able to dismiss it and navigate away from the page, or close its tab. Reconnect to the Internet.
    Though reading your initial post again, it's sounding more like JimmyCMPIT is correct since you're seeing ads in multiple browsers. It's just rare for one the ads that pops up to be like one of the tech support scams.
    In which case, you can either follow Apple's manual instructions for removing adware, or use the free automated tool, AdwareMedic (as mentioned by, and linked to by Jimmy).
    It should be noted that Apple's manual removal instructions are typically outdated. Sometimes a lot outdated. It depends on when Apple last updated their instructions page. If you would prefer to manually remove the adware on your system, you can find much more up-to-date instructions on The Safe Mac's adware removal page.

  • Creative cloud won't remove my credit card, and now it won't let me cancel! How do I get off this ride?

    I first tried to remove my credit card because I no longer want that card charged, but the card keeps coming back. So I decided, after all the trouble I've had with Dreamweaver crashing and Photoshop throwing up 'welcome screens' and all my settings getting changed with every update, to ditch Adobe CC for good.
    However, I cannot cancel my account! The instructions show that when I click on CANCEL ACCOUNT I will get a window warning me of what I'll be losing, but instead I get a window telling me I have to contact customer support. Then when I follow these windows, there is no email address!
    I've been using Adobe products since 1990. I've written books on Photoshop and Pagemaker, and lobbied (successfully) at the university where I taught to replace Quark with Indesign. I've pioneered Adobe Acrobat 3 for newspaper prepress.
    But this is the last straw.
    Please, someone tell me, how do I get off this damned ride???

    That's the same damned window I got from the site, with no contact address.
    I don't want to phone because it will cost me a fortune.
    I don't want to 'chat' because I'm busy and can't afford the time right now.
    I just want a BUTTON to click to stop Adobe debiting my credit card.
    Just like I wanted to permanently rid myself of the Application Frame, but it kept coming back in all apps after an update. Just like I wanted to permanently rid myself of the welcome screens but they kept coming back. Just like I want my apps - especially dreamweaver - to work, instead of crashing daily. I guess I'm spoiled; I work on a Mac because I like things to work.
    24 years of Adobe and you've finally managed to piss me off completely!

  • How can I get rid of Findwide Malware?

    Every time I launch Google Chrome, a second tab opens for search.findwide.com followed by a lot of other characters. Some research tells me that this is a common malware program and there are plenty of sites that explain how to get rid of it... on a PC! But NOTHING for the Mac. I checked the Chrome extensions, it isn't there. I searched the whole hard drive for "findwide" (like you do on the PC), but nothing. So I don't know where to find it or what it is called, and without knowing that, I can't get rid of it.  Can anyone help?

    You installed the "DownLite" trojan, perhaps under a different name. Remove it as follows.
    Malware is constantly changing to get around the defenses against it. The instructions in this comment 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.
    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 "VSearch" 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
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/Jack.plist
    Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
    /Library/Application Support/VSearch
    /Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/Jack
    /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.
    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" 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.
    This trojan is distributed on illegal websites that traffic in pirated movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect much worse to happen in the future.
    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 DownLite developer 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 is inexcusable and 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

  • How to get rid off 'long frames'

    when I import a movie into FCP and I use the tool 'long frames: mark';
    marks many long frames in parts of the movie.
    how to get rid off 'long frames'?
    thanks
    carlos

    Long frames are frames whose duration is too long... however sometimes it doesn't matter as you don't see the problem in playback, so if you don't see a jitter there or something, I'd not worry about them.
    Dropped frames are frames that are OK, however (usually) your drives can't play them back because they are too slow... they drop a frame to get to the next... this will look worse than long frames do usually.
    All that said, if you don't see a problem, you don't have one. Dropping frames is worse though, and I'd suggest that you keep these media files on a fast drive system other than your startup disk. The data rate of the video will determine whether or not you need to use faster disk drives. SATA internals for example will handle 8 bit uncompressed files, but not 10 bit... FW drives range a lot in what they can handle, and the spec should always be MUCH faster than what the data rate actually is. For example, I use G-Raids for 8 bit uncompressed, and 4 gig fibre channel array for HD files. But FW 400 and 800 single drives work great all day long for DV res files, and the fastest of the 800's will handle 8 bit uncompressed if you don't fill them to the brim.

  • How to get rid off yahoo search?

    when i search something from google search (in a webpage) it goes to the yahoo search website and show the results!
