#Malwarebytes for mac stuck vsearch how to#
I'm still learning how to write scripts, so these may need some help. From everything I've read here, this app works, but doesn't seem to work for me I guess I will report it to the developer. I'm getting an immediate NilOjbect exception error when trying to run a scan. Incidentally, I just downloaded the latest Adware Medic just to try it out. It does seem like user education is the only real way to stop this stuff, but if we can at least run reports, get better detection of what is being installed, etc. Such is the result of the Mac becoming more mainstream I suppose. That said, I have a feeling this is one of those topics that I need to get better educated in, as there seem to be more and more of this crapware coming out all the time. I might be surprised of what a search in our JSS would turn up, but hopefully not. I would also be interested in seeing what you've come up with for EAs Although I don't think we have a big problem with adware where I am, I'll admit that we aren't actively looking for any of this stuff. If we continue to report these Adwares as malware to Apple, Sophos, and others, our tools and methods of detection will improve. Sophos has also started to detect some of this Adware as true malware (like Geneio).

The makers of Downlite recently stepped over the arbitrary line with Apple and had their software added to the XProtect list in December. User education is the only surefire solution.

The bottom line is that Adware for our platform isn't going away and the best thing we can do is continue to teach our end-users to be careful about what they install.

I wonder if Tom Reed would share his Adware Medic code with us, so I could reverse-engineer his app to create an EA or series of EAs that scan for everything in his excellent app. I've written some EA's to look for the installation of some of this software so I at least have some idea where it's installed, but my detection methods are not complete nor foolproof, and still requires the running of Adware Medic.

For other Adware like Geneio, Downlite, VidX, and VSearch, it's harder to block said execution. I use the restricted process to block the execution (not necessarily the installation) of some of the NuisanceWare out there like MacKeeper and TuneUpMyMac, because these are just apps that are very easy to block the execution of. We make Adware Medic available in Self Service and have been instructing our users how to use it to clean their systems. We also have been seeing a huge uptick in the amount of Adware installed on our systems.
