MacKeeper...... Your Software *****.

So, I get MacKeeper Website every time I visit a site. Now I think I am MacKeeper Malware Installed, so I installed MalwareBytes, and there are FREAKING 8 THREATS BY MACKEEPER (Thanks for deleting threats). Don't install MacKeeper in your computer, macOS users, that ***** and slow down your computer. MY MAC IS ALREADY A BIT SLOW, NOW MORE SLOWER IF YOU INSTALL THAT. macOS users, install MacKeeper if you dare.

iMac, macOS High Sierra (10.13.6)

MacKeeper has a long and sordid history regarding screwing up your Mac. There are numerous discussions here about uninstalling MacKeeper to fix assorted problems. MacKeeper is poison for Macs but people are still duped by it every day.

You may be infected with some adware for MacKeeper. Download and run the free version of Malwarebytes to remove the adware.


Additionally, download and run Etrecheck. Copy and paste the results into your reply. Etrecheck is a diagnostic tool that was developed by one of the most respected users here in the ASC and recommended by Apple Support to provide a snapshot of the system and help identify the more obvious culprits that can adversely affect a Mac's performance.


It will identify any adware on your Mac and give you a way to remove it.
