EtreCheck 2.9.3: Suspected Adware or Malware - 02/11/16 07:40 PM
EtreCheck 2.9.3 just noted these 2 unknown files that may be Adware or Malware (or merely whitelisted):
1. ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.macupdate.desktop5.scanner.plist
2. ~/Library/LaunchAgents/.dat.nosync022a.rOuyuR (hidden)
But before deleting these 2 files, I would like the advice of the experts here ‘bouts.
FWIW: Malwarebytes does not note this issue.
Waddya think, should I consign these two files to the trash or should they be retained?
P.S. While doing a bit of sleuthing/exploring on this issue, I discovered that Little Snitch reports EntreCheck tried to make an outgoing connection with Adobe.com. Maybe that's a clue that I need to dump EntreCheck.
