Not gonna play. I know what a process is. I know what a website is. I found https://macsecurity.net looking in activity monitor. I went to the website because it is a process running on my MacBook Air with Bug Sur but not on my MacMini that I just use as a server so I don't surf the web on it.


I would suggest before you respond that you check to see if you have it running in your processes. I do.

Any website you are currently on shows up in Activity Monitor, especially if you use Safari.


I've no idea if this website is trustworthy but I always have concerns about any website that does not offer a street address.


Lastly, the folks who offer responses here are volunteers giving their time for free. Your requests and replies should reflect that.
