I have a mac book pro, and Mackeeper was downloaded on it somehow. Now every time I open Safari, or a new tab in it, there is a pop-up (even though I've blocked pop-ups). Im pretty sure I've deleted the program, although why am I still getting these pop-ups??
whenever I'm using safari, i keep getting a pop-up for MacKeeper, i have my pop-ups blocked in my settings but still continuously get this popping up, how can i stop this from happening?
I have a macbook air that I just bought last year and I think I have malware. I have popups whenever I click on ANYTHING in any browser that I have tried. The most common popup is this mackeeper page. I've tried to follow to uninstall instructions but I can't even find that I have ever installed it in my applications or downloads or anywhere. I have tried to delete almost everything on my laptop and everything I have ever downloaded.
Info: MacBook Air (13-inch Mid 2013), OS X Mavericks (10.9.4)
I seem to have a bit of an issue on my MacBook Pro with pop-ups. I use Google Chrome and I thought this was a Chrome issue. I uninstalled the program and re-installed it, but when I used Safari to re-install, I had pop-ups come up on Safari, so it isn't a Chrome issue.
I am unsure if this is a Java plug-in issue or what, but I'm getting pop-ups everywhere and I do work quite a lot on my MacBook. I keep getting pop-ups such as MacKeeper, Purifier, EuroMillionaire, etc. I noticed I had MacKeeper and removed it. I will admit, I was working rapidly on Friday afternoon and I think I may have disabled Java or something. I am not sure how to go to the settings and adjust this.
How I can erase this. I've had this MacBook since late 2008 and haven't had this issue. I am on OS X 10.9.5 if that matters.
my macbook air keeps getting popups like mac keeper and a few other random popups and every time i click on something in safari it pops up ? what do i do ? how do i stop this my pop up blocker is on ?
I have owned and worked on Apple computers for many years and never had any issues with any type of viruses or pop-ups and now I do. I cannot think of anything I did but now anytime I open a new Tab or do something on a web page new tabs immediately open.URL....Also, when I open other sites like Snapfish I get these pop-ups on the top and bottom of the website.
My cursor is poping up with inappropriate dialog boxes containing things like Facebook, Groupon, Apple computer, Google and other company names, even some in chinese characters. Behaves the same as other popups when you linger over over an active point on a page - eg. 'insert table' and dissappears after a few seconds. Doesn't seem malicious but is extremely annoying and perplexing.
Thought I had a virus and installed Norton which found and removed a Trojon.Sasfis virus which I thought had fixed the problem but it has returned.
I think I got infected when downloading a torrent ap--now deleted, but the problem persists. Basically every time I click on anything (even on reputable sites, I get ridiculous popups and ads that should not be there. The internet tells me that my MacBook pro has been infected with malware.
I was just browsing on Safari when I went to a website and this mackeeper pop up ad came up. It tells me that to keep my mac safe or whatever, I have to install this mackeeper thing. I knew it was a virus so I was trying to figure out how to close it but there is no option to close it, the only option is to click ok. i've tried command+w and that doesn't work either. I have also tried to force quit safari but when I open up safari again, it re-opens the tab. i got my macbook in january of this year, i really don't want it to get a virus lol.

By accident, I have recently installed this software called MacKeeper. It has been hijacking my computer since this morning. I am new user of the Macbook Air. uninstall this from my computer!!
my friend has a mac and she said i should download google chrome and i did but i think there is a virus possibly.there are plenty of pop ups of something called "safe finder" when i first open google chrome and i want to get rid of the pop ups but i don't know how to get rid of them?
My mac book pro keeps switching from google home page to "search only" or "only search" in my safari preferences and if I google something it redirects to use the yahoo search engine. I also keep getting macKeeper and zeboit pop ups. I have never downloaded macKeeper and can't find the virus or malware in my apps, downloads, or finder. Someone told me it was my adobe flash player so i deleted that and anything else that looked like garbage on my mac but nothing has changed.
