Threat Database Mac Malware ProductiveOperation

ProductiveOperation

The ProductiveOperation application is a Mac utility that may market itself as a tool that will enhance your browsing quality. However, you can rest assured that the primary goal of the ProductiveOperation application is not to optimize your browsing quality but to promote an affiliated low-quality search aggregator.

Once you install the ProductiveOperation app, you may notice that you are redirected to an unfamiliar website as soon as you open a new tab in your Web browser. The purpose of the ProductiveOperation application is to force users into using the 'Safe Finder' search engine every time they want to execute a search query online. This search aggregator is not likely to provide you with high-quality service.

Unfortunately, it can prove to be rather tricky removing the ProductiveOperation application manually from your Mac and reverting the changes it had applies to your system. This is because this shady application gains persistence by creating a new 'Launch Daemon' and 'Device Profile.' It is advisable to remove the ProductiveOperation app from your Mac with the assistance of a legitimate, up-to-date anti-virus solution that is compatible with your OSX.
