Even if do you do decide to use "adwaremedic," and it works, you'll still have a serious problem if you think that you can keep downloading anything you want and always rely on a deus ex machina to rescue you from malware. You have no way of knowing who that person is or what his intentions are. Only then should you even consider running something like "adwaremedic." The fact that someone here tells you it's safe should carry no weight at all. You could do that by searching this site for discussions in which others have followed the same advice you're being given now, and seeing what results were reported. If you're going to use that unknown software, it should be because you've done some research to determine whether it's safe and effective.

My view is that if your computer skills are not up to following the instructions in the support article, then you should not repeat the same mistake you already made, which is to download unknown software at the behest of strangers on a website. anybody have a specific folder search that would show up something? Have to go to bed, I'll try a few more later. ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ macboostermini ugin ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ MacBoostermini ugin ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ MacBooster mini ugin Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/CT2285220.bundle all with the same result of "the Folder can't be found". If you get a message that the folder can't be found, continue to the next item in the list. Repeat the steps above for each file in the following list.
anyway I entered private/etc/nf anyway and it said the folder couldn't be found. However I couldn't see "InstallMac" in the Activity Monitor CPU column [closest was "installed" (see pic).
If the file is on your Mac, a window opens with the file you searched for already selected.Type /private/etc/nf in the text field, then press Return.From the Finder, choose Go > Go to Folder.Look for the process "InstallMac." Select it, then click the Force Quit button.Look for the process "Genieo." Select it, then click the Force Quit button ✖ in the upper-left corner of the window.In the Activity Monitor window, click the CPU tab, then click Process Name at the top of that column to sort the list alphabetically.You can use Spotlight (Command-Space) to search for "Activity Monitor," then choose Activity Monitor from the search results.

Be particularly careful to restart your Mac when instructed. I followed the instruction re Genio (but with MacBooster Mini):įirst follow these steps to stop the Genieo or InstallMac processes, if they're running.
