[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1620656, member: 131855"] If this is the FBI thing that I think it is, this is more of a browser hijack than a virus. To get rid of that one do the following: 1. Turn off / disconnect all internet connections (shut off wi-fi and ethernet). 2. Shut down the Mac wait a moment then restart but do not connect to the Internet. 3. Launch your browser and close all open windows. You may also want to clear browser cache. 4. Reconnect to the Internet and open your browser.. To get rid of any similar garbage try[URL="http://www.adwaremedic.com/index.php"] Adware Medic[/URL] a try. [/QUOTE]
