Every 10 minutes or so I get a popup in the right upper corner of my MacBook Air asking me to click for the McAfee antivirus. I know you're not suppose to click on it. But I did. I thought our Macs were anti-virus proof. I used to re-boot my Mac and its gone.
Not with this annoying thing.... HELP
Note: this is not on safari. It is on my desktop...

A site you visited has given itself permission to send push notifications. Everything you're seeing is nothing but a scam.
Open Safari's preferences. Click on the Websites tab and then scroll down to Notifications. Clear any entries in the right hand window. You might find something similar in the Pop-up Windows heading below that. Block any you don't recognize.
Then if you want, uncheck the box below as shown here.
I personally can't think of any reason why I would ever want any website to push notices to me.
