Cannot quit safari

I am trying to quit Safari. Each time I quit it immediately restarts. My OS is up to date. In Finder, force quit doesn't help. Also restarting doesn't help.

MacBook Pro 13", macOS 10.14

Safari doesn’t stay quit?


There is adware installed on your Mac.


     Use  the latest release of Malwarebytes for Mac to remove malware/adware.

     Install guide:       https://support.malwarebytes.com/docs/DOC-1817

     Uninstall Guide:  https://support.malwarebytes.com/docs/DOC-1190


     The installer may ask you to allow it in Security & Privacy  /System Preference. Allow it.

     Click the “Scan Now” button. Once done quit Malwarebytes for Mac.


     Restart the computer, relaunch Safari holding the shift key down.
