I have a window popping up on my computer that asks: do you want the application Athena Search to accept incoming network connections? l click deny and it pops up again literally every two minutes, how can I stop this?
iMac 21.5", macOS 10.13
Run MalwareBytes (the free version is sufficient)

EtreCheck is a tool that helps Apple Support Community volunteers debug problems without any access to the troubled computers. Debugging problems can be a difficult task even when the machine is in front of you. Attempting it via a discussion forum is extremely difficult. EtreCheck is a great help that regards.

also I can't find the application Athena Search anywhere on my computer
Bob has you pretty well covered.
I think the malware byte fixed it for now anyway. I restarted and had one popup box about a different application and now it seems to have stopped thanks!
Great to hear, thanks for the report. :)
