Remove Mac Ads Cleaner popup virus from Mac OS X

Ironically, the app called Mac Ads Cleaner is adware itself, although it is marketed as a tool for eradicating redundant advertising. This potentially unwanted app makes it into Macs along with harmless-looking application bundles. Its impact is a nuisance as it constantly displays popups stating that adware was found on the machine and instructing the victim to register its commercial version.
