ilivid

I inadvertently loaded "ilivid" while trying to obtain some information on an old boat. It has placed a tool bar on my computer, and I can't get rid of it. I've tried symantec, clamx and now sophos. In looking on the internet, it shows as malware, but none of the previous mentioned sites recognized it as such. Do any mac users know of a way to get rid of this? Thanks....

  • ilivid is hijacking new tabs when i click to open a link instead of desired location i am sent to an ilivid page!

    i never downloaded ilivid.  it was in some search results re: vimeo and i saw the page but i did not install the app or toolbar or anything!  i searched my hard drive for anything titled ilivid but no joy. 

    i am on mac osx / macbook and i would definitely describe this as malware, it makes browsing tasks nearly impossible, it's a real nuisance, and i did not opt in for whatever their service may be.  i am presently running a sophos scan, so far no threats detected.

    if anyone has had a similar experience and found a way to remedy it, please reply and let me know what file names to look for or how to identify the files associated with this troublesome ilivid monster.  thank you very much!
