Remove AccessibilityMethod

AccessibilityMethod is an intrusive piece of software for Macs. Its installation often happens without the user's knowledge. Typically, this occurs when users interact with low-quality downloads, software bundles, or misleading online content. The good news is that AccessibilityMethod is not able to cause any harm. In fact, users will not notice anything odd about their system until they open their Web browser. Unfortunately, AccessibilityMethod has the ability to manipulate Web browser settings in order to promote 3rd-party sites. The methods it uses are very invasive. It will replace the default search engine and new tab page of your browser with a site it wants to promote.

Typically, the site that AccessibilityMethod advertises is a search engine. However, we would not advise you to rely on its services. It may deliver poor-quality results, show extra ads, or take you to other misleading sites. You should also know that AccessibilityMethod is a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) according to Mac security tools. This means that you can run your favorite anti-malware scanner to ensure its full removal.

Keep in mind that removing this app should be on top of your to-do list. While it is not a threat, it will prevent you from using your favorite search engine or new tab page. Many of the changes you make to your browser settings may not apply because of this PUP. Use an appropriate scanner to dispose of AccessibilityMethod fully, and then fix your browser settings.

We advise readers to consider keeping their Mac safe via antivirus tools at all times. This will not only stop high-profile malware like the ThiefQuest Ransomware, but also low-level intruders such as AccessibilityMethod.
