prosearchtip & prisearches/433-a.akamaihd.net malware

HELP! Suddenly prosearchtip.com has installed itself as my browser. I can get rid of it. i have used malwarebyte as suggested to no avail. I have gone to extension in Safari and none are listed. the listed home page is prisearches/433-a.akamaihd.net, but is greyed and I can't change it. What do I do at this point?

iMac 21.5", macOS 10.13

In Sys Prefs is there a Profiles Pref Pane?


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.
