Como remover o vrus ZipCloud do seu Mac Passo 1: Desinstale o ZipCloud do Mac. This new installer was obtained while visiting one of the "First Row Sports" scam sports streaming sites. O primeiro passo se livrar do aplicativo que voc baixou, junto com tudo chamado ZipCloud na sua pasta Aplicativos. Em seguida, v para os seguintes locais no Finder clicando no menu Ir e selecionando Ir para a pasta. When I attempted to view one of the supposed streams, it redirected me to a page that claimed that Safari was outdated.

(I was using OS X 10.9.5, so this actually was true.)Ĭlicking the Update Now button downloaded a disk image file named "Apple Safari Setup.dmg". The installer on that disk image did not look like an Apple installer at all, but nonetheless, I opened it anyway. I was greeted with the familiar InstallCore installer interface, except that the first page of the installer read "Welcome to Safari."Ĭontinuing with the installation resulted in being asked to accept the "Search-Assist" extension for Safari, with a big Yahoo! logo at the top of the window. Next was acceptance of the installation of MacKeeper, though the text was relatively small and uniform, and the familiar MacKeeper logo was nowhere to be seen.įinally, I had to accept the installation of ZipCloud.

ZipCloud is a controversial cloud-hosting and backup platform that can be used by both Windows and macOS users. I chose to accept all of these, of course.Īs a result, both MacKeeper and ZipCloud were installed and opened automatically. However, the topic of this article is not ZipClouds reliability and the claims that it may expose users to ads that lead to suspicious content. Interestingly, the typical InstallCore Safari extension was for some reason not installed.
The usual Set Search Settings extension for Firefox, which I have observed multiple times with InstallCore, was also incorrectly installed, as always.Īlthough no browser extensions were successfully installed, both Chrome and Firefox had their preferences modified. Most interestingly, however was the fact that this app also installed a newer version of Safari and a number of Safari's support files! Both browsers had their home pages and search engines set to a Yahoo "Search BOSS" page, which is how Yahoo is tricked into paying the scammers for promoting it. Traditional option remove the application to the Trash Close the application on the Mac. This, of course, had the effect of completely breaking Safari on my 10.9.5 system, as the newer version (8.0.6) cannot run on that version of OS X. Click Finder on the Dock, and then click Applications on the left. I was immediately suspicious that malicious changes might have been made to this copy of Safari, but I have not found any evidence of that. Nonetheless, even if I were able to run this copy of Safari, I would not choose to do so. Victims of this malicious installer should immediately remove both MacKeeper and ZipCloud, of course, but should also reinstall OS X. This will overwrite Safari and its support files with fresh copies. It should not be necessary to erase your hard drive, simply reinstall on top of your existing system.
