Jonathan, I tried your fix, but when I went back into Safari after turning my WIFI back on, I received the Mac support window and a man named Jake began a live chat with me. He asked me if I was experiencing problems with my Mac as a Michigan Comcast customer. He told me he was there to help me but recommended I call the toll free number. I didn’t know I was having problems and don’t understand what’s going on. I will open a page and in the middle of the regular links on the page this link appears for Mac global deals and a link to close it. I do that and then I get the Mac support message, which until Jake tried to chat with me has always been a loop I couldn’t get out of unless I force quit safari with command+option+escape.
