MalDrod

How can I get rid of this to my iMac?

I'll venture a guess as to what you mean.

It's a false alarm or a Windows malware attachment in email (a common occurrence for most users of e-mail). No one can hurt you, and you don't need to do anything. Just do not pass to someone else.

You have no need to do is get rid of the software "anti-virus" (AV). All these software are worse than useless.

Malware Windows is so widespread that you must assume that it is in each attachment until proof to the contrary. If you are just curious to know if a file is recognized as malware by the AV engines, you can download it from the "VirusTotal" site, where it will be tested against most of them. I do not recommend doing this with a file that may contain private information. A negative result is no evidence of anything either, because the AV software is not reliable.

Never leave any AV software remove or 'quarantine' send messages or attachments. This will damage the messaging database.
