I have the Google Redirect Virus on my Mac. How do I get rid of it?

[Richard L]

Everytime I click on a link from a search on Google, I get redirected to loads of unrelated site and ads.
How do I get rid of this as this is extremely annoying.
I am currently using an Apple MacBook.

Download Anti-Spyware Program
http://www.superantispyware.com/
Once installed right click on the icon and click 'scan for spyware, adware malware'
Do the full scan. It will show you a list of infections found. Just follow the instructions to quarantine the infected files.
I had to perform this scan about 4 times before it said 'no infections detected'
(You will need to reboot after each scan. The full scan takes some time so be patient!)
