Traffic lights PUP

[DerekVallintine]

When I go to log in I am getting the blessed "click on a traffic light" pup. I had this problem about 2 years ago and I was recommended by people on this forum to install Malwarebytes which I did and it removed the pup,  But now I have it again and no matter how many times I scan with Malwarebytes   I can't get rid of it.

Anybody else having the same problem?  I have sent a help request to Malwarebytes.

Has anybody got any suggestions on how to get rid of it? I am using a Mac desktop.

Cheers and stay safe.

It's not a virus, it's (unfortunately) an official part of the login process. It seems random when it appears. Sometimes I don't see it for ages, then it suddenly pops up again. There are several threads about it in the forum - for example;
