[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1797417, member: 131855"] I think that what you have picked up is a piece of malware. [URL="https://www.malwarebytes.com/mac/"]Malwarebytes for Mac[/URL] should get rid of it for you with just the free trial version. It also wouldn't hurt to go to Safari Preferences>General tab and make sure your home page is set the way you want it. While there go to the Extensions tab and see if there are any suspicious extensions left and uninstall them if necessary. Edit: Where did you download the opera browser from? I downloaded it recently to have an emergency browser and didn't pick up anything like you are describing. [/QUOTE]
