Hello kaderfromca,

You just have to live with it. On certain types of web sites, you will get a MacKeeper pop-up every time you click a link. Make sure you don't install any Flash Players or video players. If you do, you will turn your entire machine into a MacKeeper advertisement.

Do you recommend to uninstall Flashplayer ?

Flash Player is fine, but malicious software is often disguised as a Flash Player update. Make sure you only install any Flash updates using an installer you downloaded directly from Adobe. NEVER install from a pop-up that you did not initiate.
