What is this app?

I am wondering if anyone can help me identify what this icon is... It's showing up in my drop-down menu on 2015 MacBook Pro running on Big Sur. Specifically, it looks like it's some kind of subscription but it's to a show/website that I have never visited in my life... these notifications appear every day and I can't make them stop because I don't know what app this red signal icon represents. Example is attached of what is showing up...




MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.12

You have turned off the notification. Great.

Please remove adware installed on your Mac that is causing the problem.


From EtreCheck report:


Adware:

Launchd: ~/Library/LaunchAgents/.plist

Executable: /Applications/OneDrive.app/Contents/MacOS/OneDrive

Reason: Adware name match



Remove adware


Please run EtreCheck again

When the result appears, click the "Security" button in the sidebar on the left.

Details will appear on the right with a "Remove" button.

Click it.

Close the app.
