Is it possible to get a genuine program that can clean my iMac (purchase) I'm wary of all these advertised ones as non of the named brands have anything listed.

The only program we recommend is the free OnyX which you can download from here. Be sure to download the version for your version of OS X. Run the program in automatic mode.

Onyx from Titanium is the best, the only one recommended here and free. Get it here. Make sure you get the correct version for your version of OS X. When you run it the first time, you'll get a warning from OS X that it's from an unregistered source, but go ahead and accept the warning and let it install.

But you added what I forgot to mention - Gatekeeper restriction. Good catch. ;D

And keep an eye on how much free space your hard drive has available. Twenty prercent minimum is recommended, and don't forget to reboot from time to time. My iMac gets a reboot once a week.
