Good evening, Should the security notifications on the screen be taken seriously? I receive an alert from BNP Paribas even though I don't have an account there, a macOS system infected alert, and now a critical alert "activate antivirus". I don't have one. I have activated Firevault and isolation mode. What else can I do please? Any antivirus you could recommend for my MacBook Air? Thank you very much!

    Hello.

    This must come from your internet browser, which is likely infected with unwanted notifications; you just need to manually remove them through the browser settings.

      Hello Bazfile and those reading us,

      sorry, I don't see how to remove the pesky notifications through Safari settings. By clicking on them, I saw that they led to McAfee… And I can't get rid of them.

      Thank you and have a great day!
