Safari gives virus message

Hi Everyone:
When i open safari, a message pops up that tells me i may have a virus, adware, etc.  It of course tells me that my data's at risk, etc.  Then it gives a Toll free number to call so that i can 'Check" my own system.  It won't allow me online at all, using Safari.  i'm currently sing Chrome to get online.  Can anyone please help me out with this?   I do have adware medic but no other virus software installed.  Thanks very much, in advance, for your solutions.
Regards.

    Unless your bank's website is insecure, you're fine.  Go up to the Safari "Search" bar and type in Rapport.  You'll be amazed.  It may  "work" on PCs, but definitely not Macs.  And it's not needed for Macs.

    Back up all data before proceeding.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
    Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
    sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags -h nouchg,nouappnd,noschg,nosappnd {} + -exec chown -h $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -h -N {} + -type d -exec chmod -h +x {} + 2>&-
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
    You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
    Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
              Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
    Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
               ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.

  • How do I stop the Norton update Safari SafeWeb extension message

    How do I stop the Norton update Safari SafeWeb extension message?
    The Norton webpage does not open and the "Don't show this message again" box doesnot work.

    Norton Antivirus (made by Symantec) has a very long and illustrious reputation for mangling Mac OS X systems, sometimes to the point where a complete reinstall is necessary. Among other things, it installs kernel extensions which are known to cause kernel panics and system freezes; it contains known and documented bugs which can silently corrupt Adobe Photoshop and Adobe InDesign files, destroy a user's ability to authenticate as an administrator, and (on PPC systems) can cause Classic to stop functioning; and Symantec has on at least two occasions now released flawed .dat file updates which erroneously report certain critical Mac OS X files as "viruses." (Deleting these "viruses" causes damage to the system that in some cases renders it unbootable.)

  • Can iPhone Give Viruses to Your Windows PC Computer?

    if iPhone has a virus, can it give virus to your computer? Also, is there such thing as an iPhone virus? could you get it from using safari when you surf on the web?

    In theory its possible.    If i were a clever ******* i chould use something like the PDF exploit to add a file to the part of the iphone that comes up as a disk when pliuged into windows and in conjustion use an expolit in windows that can be used to install a virus from a usb mas storage to do something evil.  
    1 I don't think this had ever be done in wild. 
    2.  Its a really over convloted way to do it and most likely not work any one whos smart enoght to pull it offs time for ammount of impact it chould create.

  • ITunes new version doesn't open at all. Gives error message

    I downloaded 7.4.3 version of iTunes and it doesn't open at all. Gives error message. "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close."
    I have previous version of iTunes in my spare HD, in the same computer, and it works perfectly fine.
    I have unistalled and re-installed again and again many times including with the help of Apple Support help in the phone and came up with no clues of what's going on.
    How can I get a previous version of iTunes to download to my PC? I have looking for a place on Apple's website where I could probably have my issue resolved, but I found nothing.
    Thank you.

    Thanks to Jim Zack, the problem is solved.

  • Safari and the messages app dissapered on my iPad.

    Safari and the messages app dissapered on my iPad and I don't know what happened or how to get them back. The restrictions are off and I treys to search for them but they still didn't show up. I need help!

    You cannot delete the preinstalled apps. nor can they be downloaded again. They have to be on the iPad.
    How did you search for them? Did you swipe down from the middle of the home screen to get to the Spotlight Search field at the top of the screen?
    Did you try a reset yet? It's like rebooting your computer and it resets the system.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Playing mp4 audio gives error message "Video can't be played because the file is corrupt"

    Playing a particular mp4 audio file directly from a website link gives error message "Video can't be played because the file is corrupt". However other mp4 audio files from this same website do work correctly. What can I do to get all the the mp4 audio files to play directly from the same website? I must have the correct plugins, etc. since the other files play. This file is not playing from YouTube, is it on the website.
    Thank you for your help.

    What is the link to the site and file in question?
    MP4 files should be handled by Firefox itself, not a plug-in.
    # Click the ≡ Menu Button and choose Add-ons.
    # Click Plugins.
    # Set every plug-in to "Never Activate".
    # Try loading the file again. Is there any difference?
