So I have my safari settings to block pop ups but something must have messed with my computer because i get pop ups now more than ever?

There are so many pop ups showing up on safari. Do I have a virus?
Info:
MacBook Air, OS X Mavericks (10.9.4)
I have turned off third party extensions. I have made sure I had the correct version of adobe flash player. I have blocked popup windows
But no matter what I do bizarre pop ups continue. I have safari 6.16 and Max OS X 10.7.5. What to do to clean off these virus or malware?

iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9)

I don't know if anyone can help me with this, but for the past week or so, I've been getting weird popups when going to sites like nytimes.com, macrumors.com, cnet.com, google.com, and other perfectly safe sites that say something along the lines of "This site may harm your computer." And then when I click "Ignore" I get another popup that says are you sure, and I can't get out of the popup, and then I have to quit Safari.
I'm wondering if I have some kind of trojan or something like that. I'll get a screenshot next time it happens.
I have an iOS X10.9.3.
Lately I have too many popup on my safari browser windows and even separate popup windows open when I click to continue my search.
I have even an warning message: "you have excessive popups. Windows have been infected. Please call 1-855-617-0709".
What should I do?
Why can I still get Google cookies even when when I have "Always block cookies" checked? I can close Safair, then reopen it without even entering any site and Google will stick their *#@*&@ cookies and cache files in my Website data file?
The "tons" of cache files that I don't even go to the site keep cluttering up the website data file also.
If I don't shut down Safari before unchecking "always" and returning to "from 3rd parties" sites that were visited will have their cookies appear, even though don't have that site page open.
The iOS Safari seems to be better at preventing cookies and cache files from accumulating.

All of sudden OpenDNS started blocking certain sites. I never signed up with them.I live alone so no one could have done it for me.I cleared cache, reset safari, added DNS servers 208.67.222.222 & 208.67.220.220I even joined OpenDNS and found to I had no preferences.

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.

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.

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??

Once i installed the latest safari update and the computer restarted, my date settings were changed to December 31, 2000. Also, random programs popped up, asking if i should allow or deny them. As well, i was disconnected from the internet. I'm not quite sure what has caused this.

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.

Every time I connect my iPhone 5s and download photos/videos from it via iPhoto, a "Blocked Plug-in" black window pops up that I'm not able to get rid of until I shut down my computer. I have installed the latest version of Adobe Flash but that hasn't solved the problem. I'm on a MacBook Pro using OS X version 10.9.4.

I have recently discovered that on safari, on certain websites such as bbc.co.uk, there are words that are highlighted in green and underlined. Everytime i click on a 'green word' it takes me to some kind of pop-up style website that looks pretty dodgy. Also it happens on google chrome. My computer is running a tad slower, but nothing out of the ordinary. I fear something may have downloaded by accident via the internet.
