how do i remove hmyloginhelper

Somehow I picked up the adware hmyloginhelper. Every instruction I've looked at says that I have to go to the Extentions tab in the Safari Preferences menu and remove it from there, but it does not appear there on my MacBook Air. Still, I continue to have this malware pop up on my computer from time to time. Has anyone had this same issue? Any advice on how I can remove it?

MacBook Air 13", macOS 10.14

Try downloading this program which was written by Thomas R, a long time poster. The program will search for malware/adware. The program will do the work for you which makes it easy. It may be necessary to run more than one scan. After running the scans, restart the computer.
