my computer was running weird (safari not opening properly and getting the rainbow wheel constantly and having to do force quits...(
my kids have been on it so i thought i better run an anti virus checker. stupidly i downloaded one without reading about it. I downloaded ClamXav...
i've then read that it can use all your cpu and make your computer run even slower. now i'm worried i've made the situation worse...

how do I completely and safely remove ClamXav?

and what is a good free online virus checkers for mac?

i'm fairly new to Macs - i used to use trend micro's online virus checker for my PC...

Thanks in advance for your help...
