[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 1839718, member: 38864"] Wow. Well you are practically overrun with adware. Those all need to go. You should also revisit your internet safety practices. There are stickies and other discussions in the [I]Security Awareness[/I] section of the forums here that are worth reading over. At the minimum, get yourself a good adblocker. Malicious ads are a vector for tricking people into downloading adware. Everyone has their favorites here but I've come to prefer AdGuard for Mac. DetectX also has a handy option called Folder Observer that you should enable. It monitors the places that software can be auto loaded from on startup and lets you know if they get modified for any reason, legit or otherwise. [/QUOTE]
