Title: mackeeper
Post by: pscocoa on 19 January 2015, 11:46:27: My brother in law has a problem with the above on his iMac.

Anybody successfully removed it and the pop ups. There is quite a bit on the interweb but would be good to hear from someone on here who may have personal experience. Not sure yet which browser he is using.
