Hello,
I couldn't find any thread with this topic.
Since Tuesday I've been noticing a weird behavior on my Mac when I use any webpage that provides search results such as google, google images, youtube, etc both on Safari and Chrome. Every time I search I get smth similar to this
Notice that I have highlighted the virus results ads. It emulates google ads' look&feel but with and X to close it. It doesn't matter if you try to close it because it just to confuse you because you will get similar ads mixed with the search results.
Obviously it is because I downloaded a program from a non-secure website, so blame on me. Despite this mistake, I want to get rid of the virus.
I have installed and run scans from multiple virus scanners like Bitdefender, Malware Bytes and Adware Doctor. Although I have deleted everything these scanners found and I still get that Also tried searching for similar cases on internet when couldn't find with the exact example or the right solution.
Can you help with this? Do you know a proper Virus Scanner? Do you actually know how to get rid of this specific virus?
Thank you very much guys!
