Many years ago I downloaded some free version of antivirus software called "antivirus for mac". It was a bit rubbish, it didn't seem to do much, except pipe up with messsages every now and again that my computer was at risk and I should pay them a subscription for a better version of the software. Given my experience, I eventually decided to delete the app from my mac. However, since then, I repeatedly (every few minutes) get the message "the app antivirusfor mac unexpectedly quit". This app is no longer on my computer, it's not running. I can find no trace of it, either when I look through my apps or search for any reference to it in finder. I have no idea why this message keeps coming up, it is extremely annoying, as it will pop up when I am working, on a meeting or streaming something.
I have tried to find the original software, re-download it and then delete it again, but I can't even remember which company makes it, or find something similar on the app store or with a google search.
I have a 14-inch, 16G 2021 Macbook pro, currently using Sonoma 14.3.1 (the error message survived the update process).
Any help or suggestions with this would be much appreciated.
