Remove Search Genius from Safari, Chrome and Firefox on Mac OS X

As the time goes by, it becomes more and more evident that Mac OS X is no longer that much of a moving target for cybercriminals. To its credit, however, this platform still boasts the defenses that keep malware from reaching a level of ubiquity. The main vector of compromise when it comes to Macs is the web browsing environment since it’s currently the least protected piece that’s not entirely controlled by Apple. The makers of infections like Search Genius take advantage of this status quo to the fullest.
