Fake Apple and other pop-ups on Chrome

I had this issue once before and fixed it with Etre Check, but I followed the same steps and this time, it's not working.

I am getting annoying fake popups while browsing in Chrome (fake Apple websites, etc.) I've cleared my cookies and cache, run EtreCheck and it hasn't found anything. Ran the code Linc Davis had posted in another forum, and came up with this. One Drive, Dropbox, ShipStation and Spotify are all legitimate, and I use the Adobe Creative suite every day for work, so I think those are fine too.

Not so sure about these other ones though...

If anyone can spot the malware that would be super helpful. So frustrating my previous fix is no longer working!

iMac Pro, iOS 10.1.1
