My brother decided to install uTorrent on my iMac. In doing so, he accepted the installation of MySearchDial, a browser hijacker. I now have no idea how to remove it. Adding a new tab in Chrome will link to the MySearchDial search engine. I'm not sure how else it's affecting the computer, but it seems slower. The only instructions for removal I've found are for Windows.
