Malware , I have insufficient permissions in library

I can see quick look and some other malware-ish items in library . I can't edit or move them .

It double stacks popup ads when I move pages online . The popups load over my selected page .

Mac cleaner , survey stuff ,


Thanks for looking Hans K .

iMac 21.5" 3.06 GH ,,,, powerbook g4 , superdrive , 1.25G ram 75 GB hd, Mac OS X (10.6.2)

What Niel posted seemed to work . I load an upgrade to a adobe flash player / reader . Piggybacked in the download was adware . In libray > Launch Agents you could see the adware titles . No way to move / delete or trash them " permissions " ... so you ended up with pop ups even with pop up blockers on . Each page click to a new website generated 2 - 3 full page pop ups " untitled " adware Mac Keeper , some photo editing software sales , surveys . Seems it was just the iMac as the phone and iPad kept working normally .
