[QUOTE="jozi, post: 1641371, member: 344212"] Thank you vansmith and iclev for responding so promptly. Lisa, I've taken your advice and gone the Adwaremedic route and it has worked. No redirects are currently plaguing me. Thank you so much. I was amazed at how quickly the software found the infected files - within seconds it found a whole batch of files that I've deleted. I also cleared the browsing history in Chrome. I was a bit perplexed by your advice re: "On Startup" as there are three choices provided and none of them contained any info re: redirect websites. I only had one enabled extension - Google Docs - which I have disabled. I only use Chrome so I have not yet played with the settings in Safari and Firefox. I download a lot of documentaries from youtube. Is youtube content safe to download? What precautions can I take to ensure that a youtube video is safe to download? Any advice you can give re: anti virus or malware protection for mavericks would be appreciated. Thanks again for your prompt assistance. [/QUOTE]
