Hello,

I am desperate to get rid of Nav-Links Virus, that I have everywhere in my screen ... I have a MacBookAir and many antivirus programmes are not for Mac.

Besides, I have CleanMyMac... useless!

So grateful if somebody can help me!
Thanks and good night in Barcelona!

G'day and welcome to the forums.

Well not a virus, but a malware. Ghostery will take care of these nasties picked up at nasty web sites. Why run AV that are not for Mac ~ you are asking for problems. And add CleanMyMac and Mackeeper crapware to that also.

For maintenance use the free Onyx.

Inasmuch as Nav-Links is not a virus, I'm unsurprised to hear that anti-"virus" programs don't help with it. See if Ghostery fixes the issue.

A quick Google search on 'mac Nav-Links' says it likely due to a browser extension that needs to be disabled or deleted. All one has to do is figure out which one(s) it seems. :D

Possibly the opt-out would work????:
Nav-Links - Help

Or otherwise maybe use the browsers 'reset' option and reboot.
