Thank you, what a brilliant program. I downloaded and ran the program. This was after using the other application search/removal tool for Mac. The problem has now stopped. The Nielsen software was removed but there were some files with different names and they were found. EtreCheck found the files as you said it would.

Problem was thus resolved I think through the Application uninstaller/destroyer, then I ran the EtreCheck and found more files to destroy.

Thank you all.

EtreCheck is a simple little app to display the important details of your system configuration and allow you to copy that information to the Clipboard. It is meant to be used with Apple Support Communities to help people help you with your Mac.

Pastebin is a good place to paste the whole report...

Workable but harder for me to work with...the Note tool on the bottom of this editor's toolbar, as shown in the image, to copy and paste the output from EtreCheck.

Hello friend,

Yes, on all websites. I am using Safari. I believe t could be a Nielsen website tracker. I am trying an application search/removal tool. Disabling javascri[t worked for a bit but obviously the websites like youtube would not load .
