Hi Claudia,

you can remove Remove Search.anysearch.net Redirect From Mac OS (Guide) manually.

Probably, the more convenient way to get rid of anysearch.net is to download and run Malwarebytes for Mac—Mac Antivirus Replacement | Malwarebytes | Malwarebytes.

If you decide to remove this browser-hijacker manually, please make sure that you uninstall all unknown Safari Extensions!

Cheers
