I used Safari to search for the file and discovered this web page in Apple
Support Communities discussion:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4656365?start=120&tstart=0
Which led me to The Safe Mac and an adware removal tool:
http://www.thesafemac.com/art/
Here is a linc to the tool:
http://www.adwaremedic.com/index.php
Any thoughts? Has anyone used this site (The Save Mac) or this tool (Adware
Medic)?
Thanks.
