Its not a virus, Macs cannot get viruses. If you suspect adware download and run Malwarebytes. Malwarebytes was developed by one of our own colleagues here in ASC and is about the most proven anti-malware software for Mac.


If you got a pop-up telling you have a virus, it is a scam and you can disregard it.
