I work for a school district that still deploys Macbooks running 10.6.8 and we're starting to see malware issues popping up on them. We used to use the TSM Adware Removal tool but since they were purchased by Malwarebytes the tool is no longer supported. Unfortunately we don't have enough money in the budget to replace 50+ machines right away so we need to find something to remedy the situation. Has anyone come across a tool that will help remove malware from this older OS?
