Will my computer still be okay after downloading Mackeeper, then erasing it?

I thought I downloaded a virus, so I downloaded Mackeeper, not knowing that it was also considered a virus. I then uninstalled it by dragging it to the trash and choosing to secure erase it. Is my computer going to be ok?

Use these instructions to COMPETELY remove it ... the author keeps up with MacKeepers new tricks:

  • What does it mean that our files must be downloaded by January 2015?  Will our files still be accessible after this date or will they be deleted?

    Hi Everyone!
    I'm a bit new to the whole PDF thing and am thrilled to share that I finally figured out how to use this cool feature! Well sort of! I noticed that there is a large red button that says all files will be deleted on January 6th. What does that mean exactly?  Will any files that we have stored here simply vanish?  I have a PDF file that I published in my 'workspace' that's linked to my business website.  Will the link to my PDF file just disappear on January 6th?  Thanks for any insights that you can share!
    Blessings,
    Lori

    Adobe Workspaces is being retired at the beginning of 2005. For more information, see FAQ: Adobe Workspaces retired.
    Yes, links to any files your have stored on Workspaces will not work after January 6, 2015.

  • Will Windows XP still get Windows Update download?

    I am thinking of wiping out an XP Home netbook and re-installing it from scratch.  I understand Microsoft is not supporting Windows XPs any more.  Will the newly re-installed Windows XP get automatic Windows update download from Microsoft of
    whatever Microsoft has already developed.

    Yes, it will. As per MS : "There are no current plans to remove existing Windows XP security updates from Windows Update after end of support on April 8, 2014,"

  • Netinfo corrupted but will my accounts still be there after fixing?

    Appears my Netinfo database may be corrupt. For the last month or so, I've been encountering this frustrating situation where my Mac seems to forget the passwords for all of the admin accounts. I cannot log in with any (but curiously can log in to my non-admin accounts.) If I boot off the install CD I can reset my password and suddenly everything is back to normal... for a while. Eventually, at some seemingly random point, the admin accounts get locked out again (this includes root too!)
    After searching, I found this document that describes what I need to do, but it doesn't tell me if anything will happen to the accounts on the machine.
    I can't use the netinfo db backup (as it's probably corrupted too) so I'll have to rename/delete the current db and let the OS recreate it. Does that wipe out the accounts? I've read reports about this elsewhere that seem to indicate that the accounts will disappear, but if that's the case, how do I get them back?
    There's some critical stuff on the machine. I'd like to fix it but I can't lose the accounts on it.

    Curious that you have to recreate the accounts in the correct order. Why is that?
    The numeric UID property determines which accounts can access which files. This property is sequentially assigned to new accounts, and starts with 501.
    I don't actually recall the order that the accounts were created, but if you can post an explanation of how to deal with that, I would appreciate it.
    From Single User mode, run the following command: 'ls -ln /Users/' without the quote marks; both instances of l are lowercase Ls. It will produce output that looks like:
    drwxr-xr-x 2 501 99 68 Feb 15 2006 Trash
    For each line of the results other than Shared, find the number that corresponds to the blue text and subtract 500 from it; this will be the position in the sequence in which that account needs to be created.
    I'm thinking I should just create a temporary backup of the home folder for that account, delete the netinfo database and then try logging into that account again. If it succeeds then I just need to re-create the other accounts which would literally be a matter of minutes to do. Does that sound like a good way to do this or would there be some problem with that?
    That account needs to have been the first created for that to work properly. If it isn't, you will still be able to backup the folder, but you may experience issues logging into and using that account.

  • Ipad will not charge or turn on after downloading IOS 7

    Ipad will not charge or turn on and I have tried re-booting etc but nothing happening. Any help would be appreciated. Cheers

    Charge the device via a wall outlet for At least 10-20 minutes, then try this while it's still plugged in
    Reboot device by pressing both the home button and sleep/wake (power) buttons at the same time for 10-15 seconds until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
    If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings  (or for network connection issues 'reset network settings').
    (no media or data will be deleted from the device, this will only take a minute).
    If that doesn't work then backup and then restore the device as new first (to isolate cause of the issue). Then from backup if necessary.

  • M/dell w/windows XP is so slow, still. Even after downloading the add ons. I have probably messed op. Can yoo help me?

    Slow and not responsive : start op , commands, it makes sonds like it is doing something, and I haven't toched it. I got so opset I banged on the keyboard, and I no longer have a letter between T and V.

    I had all the dot nets in add/remove but discovered they were not installed. Got all up to date. Puter is 2005, I have all that U listed except Win7. I just don't know if I need that or not. Did U say that I need more than the 2.5 GB
    memory that I have? Please tell me why Win7 is better than WinXP.
    FF is running much better now but Webkinz accounts are still loading slower than in IE. I am wondering if maybe I should totally remove all of FF including customizations and personal info and start over fresh with a clean install of ver 4. I am still using ver 3.6.16. Is it possible that this is reason for Webkinz (a flash, java and Unity game) not loading good? Also, are there some of the Plug-ins that I can remove? What Audio players do I need? I have wmp, real player, aol media playback, realarcade, realjukebox, also is Zylom usable? Thank you so much for your help.

  • After downloading videora then what do i do?

    ?

    wow tyhis post is very useless. Have you tried searching the 100s of other videora posts that ask the same question? By the way is the windows community as a whole this ignorant on how to follow instrucitns offered on videoras website.
    http://www.videora.com/en-us/Converter/9101805213907853474733.html
    or that there is even a videora suport forum for such absolutely enlightening question.
    http://www.pspvideo9.com/forums/index.php?c=8
    or does the windows community even realize that the software that they so blindly download has a website.
    http://www.videora.com/en-us/Converter/
    I mean asking these questions without searching online is like me asking. How do i wipe my but after i have taken a dump?
    Really peoel is the software that difficult compared to operating windows everyday?

  • Can not get firefox to work after downloading 4 then going back to 3.6

    Firefox had to reinstall adobe reader and now firefox will not open nothing works and 4 is just plan crap

    Hi Kevin,
    I hope you had a good Thanksgiving. I am attaching a zip file with the LabVIEW project, my build specification and my version of "Greatest Common Divisor.vi", which should be the same as the one that you have that ships with the LabVIEW C Generator, but just in case. I am also attaching a zip file with the C files generated by the LabVIEW C Generator.
    You can also see the video I posted earlier with the steps I followed. I hope you are able to point out where I went wrong. 
    Thanks,

  • Internet Explorer has stopped working on home computer - is it possible to download firefox & then burn to zip drive & install from there?

    I cannot get to the internet because MS Internet Explorer has stopped working & I would like to use firefox anyway. Is there a way to install from zip drive? I am using Windows 7

    The Firefox download is the complete installer, and yes, you can run it from external storage such as CD, ZIP, or USB flash drive. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/fx/#desktop
    You probably want to get IE repaired as well, since Windows uses the components of IE to check for updates, among other things. This isn't the best forum for Windows help. You could try here: http://windowssecrets.com/forums/forumdisplay.php/52-Windows-7-Forum
