Re: Mac tune up. how to find and delete

 

Howdy.

OK. "Website" means you are using a web browser.

This is a suspicious program and could be adware. Adware is not good.
Adware is a current plague for both Windows, Linux, and Macintosh.

Try Malewarebytes.

There is a paid version and a free version. The free version should
remove this item.

Thanks anyway, I¡¯ll pass. I assumed, wrongly, that you would know it referred to the ¡°group directory.¡±

Thanks for helping?

Safari malware!? adsco

Michael Dunn
 

Anyone else encountered weird redirect(?) issues that seem to involve c.adsco.re? I have a few times, and am getting a bit worried. Googling reveals some info about the domain, but mostly results in pages that want you to use their particular brand of anti-virus. Sigh¡­ I did find and delete a cookie from that site, but doubt that¡¯ll be enough to solve the problem.

thx
Michael


Re: make screen smaller--

 

I am on an older OS, but if Bob's suggestions does not do it, then drag your cursor to top of the screen, and go through the Menu Bar looking for a tab that has an item saying something like "exist full screen", or look in System Prefs for a pref that will allow you to use full screen. In 10.7.5 it is called Mission Control, but I think it changed shortly after that.

Re: Mac tune up. how to find and delete

Sew, Mac Tune Up is most likely malware, avoid it and any app that suggests it will clean your Mac.?

If clearing your caches and cookies doesn't do it, then ask fir a suggestion, here, for an adware remover.?

Download the free ¡°EasyFind¡± from the Mac App Store:

Ask it to search for ¡°Mac Tune Up¡±
I suggest using these criteria:

Delete the relevant files that it finds.
