  • I was downloading a file off Piratebay and ended up downloading a program/thing called Genieo. What is it? I was trying to download a normal file when i downloaded and installed Genieo. What is it? Is it a virus? I have a Mac and running Mac OSX Lion. Please Help.

  • Answer:

    First of all, you need to stay off Pirate bay downloading illegal files. This is how innocent people end up with virus'. And that's just before the FBI knocks on your door about your stolen software. Read this and see if it will clear your computer. If not, you're going to have to reformat and install your OS again. http://www.genieo.com/faq/#q20

Genieo is legit. It's not a virus but a personalization home page tool. It creates a personalized homepage based on your web history. You can also make your homepage personal with photos. It looks like a newspaper However some sites say it can cause privacy concerns and crashes.
