Malaware or not? pcrisk.com?

Am still trying to get rid of the Bing and Trovit.com

have had a few suggestions one of which included downloading software which apparently wasn't such a great idea. Can anyone advise?

Hello, Jablinski55!

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities, it's great to have you here. I see that you're dealing with some adware or malware right now and I would be happy to help you clear it out.

To start, it's possible that you're experiencing a form of malware but it could also be a pop-up issue in Safari. With that in mind, I have a couple of articles that can help you get this squared away.

For malware, I'd recommend working through this article: macOS Sierra: Protect your Mac from malware

If you feel that it's more likely a pop-up issue, then this is going to be your go-to resource: How to block pop-ups in Safari

I hope that this information is helpful.

​Have a great day!
