Macworld How to remove MacKeeper Part II (the pop-up edition)

I recently provided instructions for removing the MacKeeper app from your Mac, along with its component parts. But for some, that's only a piece of the puzzle. This question is typical of the follow-up email:

But how do I stop MacKeeper notifications from popping up in the Safari and Chrome browsers and asking me to install it?

The first thing I'd suggest you do is remove any MacKeeper-related cookies in your browser. In Safari this means opening Safari's preferences, clicking the Privacy tab, and then clicking the Manage Website Data button. Search for mackeeper in the sheet that appears and there's a good chance you'll find a cookie for mackeeper.com. Select it and click the Remove button. Vow to never visit the site again.
