"Unusual traffic"

"Unusual traffic" sometimes on normal Safari, sometimes over HandOff and most of the time on private browsing. I already did multiple virus scans (Using BOTH Malwarebytes and CleanMyMacX) so I think I should be safe; but why is this happening?? Anyone else also experiencing this?

MacBook Pro (2021)

The first thing you should do is uninstall CleanMyMac. It is known to cause multiple issues. The second thing is to explain what you mean by "Unusual traffic".

Any Third Party Applications that will interfere with the normal operation of the OS,  is an invitation for disaster. 


Certain Applications maybe available on the Apple Apps Store - this only means the Developer is prepared to pay Apple a portion on each sale. What the Application may do to the computer is up to the User to check this out before purchase


Any of the below should be removed as per Developers Instructions 


1 - Disk Cleaner 


This will include CleanMyMac , aka “ BrickMyMac
