Hi there is a way to remove CompellingAgent malware but you have to follow EVERY single instruction in this guide: https://malwaretips.com/blogs/remove-compellingagent-from-mac-virus-removal-guide/

Please do not skip any steps and make sure to install the Malwayebytes program: https://www.malwarebytes.com/mac-download

The last step is to check all your other browsers starting with Safari to make sure the malware is not there too.

Good luck and let us know if you were finally able to destroy it!
