I keep getting this message constantly. I don't see an application by that name. I have blocked Word, Powerpoint, Excel in the firewall settings. No help. I deleted the firewall file and restarted. No help.

Hello, MacMark777.
Sounds like adware or some other malware.
You can download and run Malwarebytes, it’s a very popular scan tool among veteran users here in the Community, and it’s the only one recommended by Apple tech support folks. See if it can identify any malware you may inadvertently have installed. The free version is probably all you need at this point.
Also, check System Preferences > Profiles. Are there any profiles there? There shouldn't be unless you put them there. That would be s sign of something amiss.
