Q: pop ups when I go to any website
Whenever I click on a website a pop up aooears normally for Keeping my Mac safe. I believe I have the virus that Linc Davis spoke about in early August. I followed his steps to delete but I have a few .plists remaining. Two in Launch Daemons - com.adobe.fpsaud.plist AND com.google.keystone.daemon.plist. The other two are in my VSearch folder - DP.plist and Version.plist.
Please know that I have no idea what I am typing or its significance. I just came to these files while following his fix. I don't know if I'm supposed to have the above or not.
I was putting together a keynote presentation for our Service Animal Project and attempted to embed some UTube footage of returning military that were helped with dogs. I was only able to download one but I bet I was on a bad source and got the virus. Again, I had no idea what I was doing. Just following suggestions on the web.
If anyone could help me undo my misdeeds I would be most grateful. If anyone could instruct me on how to safely embed videos into a keynote presentation I would be ecstatic. I volunteer for a non-profit.
Many thanks!

Those are not related to the trojan and you don't have to delete them.
The other two are in my VSearch folder
Delete that whole folder.
