No AV software can stop you from doing that. It’s all Trojans, which is software you have to download and install. There are no viruses (software that installs with no help needed from the user). You don’t need any type of AV software on a Mac. ChumSearch is currently one of the worst, as it’s difficult to remove. Problem is, many of those downloads also install adware.
These sites do indeed offer all kinds of legal downloads to get free and shareware software from, or demos of commercial software.
Or, you used an aggregate download site such as or. And it's complete junk.įrom what you’ve described, at some point, you were convinced to install garbage software. MacKeeper does not exist to simply advertise other products. That part of the response is completely wrong. It is a software that basically advertise full version of apps or other features But only after you pay for it first, of course. Were you to install this pure garbage on a brand new Mac, it will claim to have found numerous serious errors that need to be fixed. This is a technically correct answer, but only by the slimmest of margins. Just to let you know that mackeeper is not a malware Many of Apple's phone reps suggest MalwareBytes to callers. That any Apple tech support person would say any such thing suggests you were talking to a first day rookie. It was called Adware Medic before the MalwareBytes folks hired Thomas (the person who wrote and still maintains the app) and changed its name to MalwareBytes for Mac. That's what it's main function has always been. They claimed Malwarebytes can not remove adware. I don't know who you were talking to, but you've gotten a lot of really bad advice.
