Malware tab pop up

How can I get rid of this tab that says I have a malware? One of the selections said show in finder, but it never brought it up. And whenever I click ok with or without putting in the check mark, it still pops up.

"I tried the resource you sent me, I don’t remember but it wasn’t able to remove it. However, my friend came over and helped me with another program and it was free and didn’t need to put in a credit card info. But I am still very appreciative for you help, thank you!"

Uninstall Security Software:

What is this software your friend installed? Is it Security Software? - If so, uninstall it. It will get in the way (VPN settings and such).


To Uninstall it use the uninstaller from the Developer's Web site. Just dragging & dropping its icon into the trash will leave cached files sitting about your Mac.
