Hi. The other day, i powered on my macbook pro retina 2015, and it booted how it should. however, when I got to my desktop, I got 10 notifacations saying "_10477506114 will damage your computer. Then, after that, 2 terminal windows opened, then closed. I moved it to the bin, and terminal opened and closed. What is that app for. Once I got a app on my laptop called mac cleanup pro. It was removed, but does it have anything to do with that?
Lacking some details here to pin this down...
If you suspect you have installed adware/malware:
>System Preferences>Profiles click into it and then remove all the suspicious things from the list. (This Preference pane will not be present if no profiles found.)

or
Try running this trusted utility https://www.malwarebytes.com/mac/
also Verify you are not using SOCKS proxy:
>System Preferences>Networks>Advanced>Proxy uncheck the box
Adware/malware launch daemons can set SOCKS proxies without user participation.
(SOCKS is an Internet protocol that exchanges network packets between a client and server through a proxy server.)
In general Uninstall all third party apps that are Cleaners/Optimizers/Anti-Virus
