[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1952499, member: 204485"] Do you actually have McAfee software on board. If so it's rubbish in my opinion and constant adware notifications are likely to pop up like the one you show in your screen shot even if you don't have it. For the time being I would just ignore it. I'm with others, DetectX Swift is good, fast and free. It will allow you to Delete or just Quarantine anything suspect, even PUP's (Potentially Unwanted Programs). Intego Virus Barrier Scanner is also good but misnamed as there are no virus' for the Mac but it will find Malware and I think Adware which may account for your McAfee notification. Clicking on that will almost certainly take you to Mac-Uptodate.com to download a McAfee product. When I do a search for Mac-Uptodate.com I get this, "macuptodate.com doesn't support a secure connection with HTTPS" a warning in itself. [/QUOTE]
