Purple Malware, eradicate it completely

Thanks for your explanations, but I'm not sure if what I have is really malware, or an exploit that the antivirus detects "as malware."
Logically, if it's the last one, I think I shouldn't worry, right?
 
What file/folder still appears as infected?
By the way, what do the people that made you install Purple say about this?
 
The truth is that yesterday when I uninstalled Avast, I installed Total AV, out of mistrust as to whether it could be malware or not, and the TotalAV antivirus did not detect Purple Pro as malware, but it has detected others, in the form of viruses and others. as potentially dangerous for containing something for Jailbreak.
I don't understand why the Jealbreak thing is detected as "bad".
Is it really bad for the system?

As far as what people say, to my knowledge I don't know that anyone has complained about malware with Purple Pro. I also don't remember exactly if I downloaded it from the official source or an external source.
 
Of course, now I understand.
It depends on the use that is going to be given to it.
It's good to know that.

So to be more protected, it is logically always better to use a good antivirus.
Which one do you recommend that has real-time protection, does not slow down the system, is effective, and is also free?
 
I don't understand the "monitors common persistence locations and alerts whenever a persistent component is added" thing.

But it does the antivirus function, is it quality?
 
Hello, are you still here or could someone else explain to me what all this means.
I still have more doubts and questions.

Thank you.
 
Maybe you shouldn't mess with software like this if you have trouble understanding what a tool like BlockBlock does. No offense.
 
I understand, well I better leave it.
What free antivirus with real-time analysis do you recommend?
 
I can't really recommend a specific app. I used to use Sophos but haven't installed it at the moment.
macOS comes with integrated security tools, such as XProtect Remediator.
 
Thank you.
But something more standard and commonly used, that met certain conditions like the ones I mentioned, could you tell me something?
