Q: 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 .

    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 .
