By far the easiest, quickest, and most complete way to remove adware from one's Macintosh is by using this free product:
AdwareMedic (free)
http://www.adwaremedic.com/index.php
However, if for some reason you don't care to run Adware Medic, there is a very detailed article on how to manually remove adware, here:

Note that most of the anti-virus software companies don't consider adware to be malicious, so their products don't look for adware.
