googlesyndication pop up

In the past few days I have seen a definitely annoying message popping up on Safari with the script "Do you want to allow downloads on "tpc.googlesyndication.com"? You can change which websites can download files in Websites Preferences.


Obviously I click on "Cancel" and so the download of the file f.txt is blocked.


I don't think it's normal, may it be a virus?

Thanks

Greetings, Fran_85.


Welcome to the Apple Support Communities. It’s certainly understandable that you’d be concerned by the  “tpc.googlesyndication.com” popup that you described. We can understand why you’d want this resolved. 


It sounds like you may have an extension installed. Does it continue if you uninstall the extension? Get extensions to customize Safari on Mac - Apple Support


All the best.
