i downloaded something i didn't mean to and i accidentally let it have access to my computer

ever since i downloaded it i have been experiencing a ton of lag on my comp, sometimes spurts of 5-10 minutes where i can barely click or type anything because it's so laggy

i've also noticed there are ads on google that aren't being blocked by adblock, and sometimes when i click something a new window pops up with "download mackeeper" (mackeeper is a known mac virus)

it really sucks and i don't know what to do

delete the file. also you should download windows security stuff, or if you have enough money to purchase memberships for security like kaspersky and norton.

don't even get me started

if i'm lagging bad in a roblox game, i can't even type at ALL (this isn't because of what i downloaded, this has always happened ever since i got my mac in 2011)

if i'm trying to type something like "good job dude"

it will probably come out like "gd bdue"

i'm currently downloading a mac antivirus software called "sophos" i did a quick google search and figured out it is safe and effective, so hopefully it'll work

then mac just might be slow

do you have too many downloaded programs and/or too much used space?

i had/have the same thing but i don't lag in games i freeze in chrome several times and windows stops responding

don't get me right i definitely have a 3 year old, outdated mac that i wish i could throw across the room because all macs are useless and awful

but i have NEVER experienced this kind of browser lag, as well as the excessive amount of ads that occur now when they didn't before i downloaded it
