[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1948465, member: 396914"] I would suggest you use a search tool like Find Any File or EasyFind to search for "SS Protect Limited" or some combination of those words to see if there is a fragment left that is loading at boot. Also searcch for "TotalAV" to see if there is anything left behind with that in the name. You can also try Etrecheck to see if it can find what's loading and where it's coming from. Then you can try to delete it from the source to see if it stays dead then. Make a good backup first, as deleting things directly can have strange results sometimes. If it is an AV file, it may be difficult to delete. You may have to boot into Safe mode to free up the system. In extreme cases, you might have to boot from an external drive to gain access to the library where the junk is located, but that is really rare. [/QUOTE]
