How to get rid of "ANY SEARCH?"
Was required to upgrade adobe flash player after clicking on a link in order to view content. Got 3 other "apps" (one being mackeeper which AppZapper removed) and this "ANY SEARCH" thing which is now the first tab that appears when I open Firefox. The uninstall instructions are unclear. Please help me rid my computer (macbook pro running Yosemite) of this thing.

Hello catchusifu,
That "Any Search" is a browser hijacker, malware that you will of course want to get rid of.
See : https://howtoremove.guide/any-search-mac/
Go to the Firefox menu (≡) => Add-ons => Extensions
( Mac : Command + Shift + A)
Look for anything unfamiliar - if you find one, remove it.
Next step : run malwarescans.

Run most or all of the listed malware scanners. They all work differently - what one program doesn't pick up, the other might.
