I think my mac as a virus PLEASE HELP

[houssein31]

Hello

I did something really stupid, I wanted to download this free game so I downloaded a bunch of stuff like utorrent, dlllite and a bunch of other things that i dont know what they are. Since then, I am having A LOT of annoying ads appearing in safari. I thought that macs didn't get virus but then again, im not sure what is a virus..

So my question is, how do I make it stop? how i make all these annoying ads go away? ( this is happening on my iMac 2013 if it helps)

THANKS IN ADVANCE

Ps: sorry for the bad english, its not my first language

You have to show an example of what the problem is. Upload a screenshot to an image sharing site.

You do not have a virus.

You have probably installed toolbars and adware that take over Safari and redirect you to ad sites, etc.

First go to Safari preferences and change your homepage back to something like google.com, and remove any extensions that may be installed. Then quit Safari (by holding Command + Q) and hold the shift key while clicking the Safari icon to reopen the app without reloading previous windows.

If you are still having troubles upload a screenshot like T'hain Esh Kelch said so we can see what is going on.

Also:

Don't download things if you don't know what they are.

Given that description I couldn't exclude you simply installed Flash on your machine and are just seeing the ad-rotten website as it was designed

At the very least you could install ClickToPlugin to cut automatic playing of Flash content, and GlimmerBlocker to block all these ads that plague the web.
