[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1840857, member: 204485"] I think the reason the Softonic notification cannot be found with malware searches are because it's not really malware. It's just a notification which is not harmful in any way, annoying but not malicious. My guess is that it may have loaded as part of a Cookie from another site which an Adblocker would usually prevent. I'm surprised it appears in the notification centre though. Are we sure that it isn't in Notification Center Preferences. If so it's easily disabled if not removed. Sent from my iPad using [url=http://r.tapatalk.com/byo?rid=95677]Mac-Forums[/url] [/QUOTE]
