• BakerlessPillowwork in the Application Support folder

  I went looking for suspicious files after clicking a download link shaded and found this in my root (?) Record of Support request. Mention this because otherwise I would have thought it was a new file placed by an update, but I have not updated my OSX in awhile

  

  Inside the BakerlessPillowworks folder is an application of process simply called 'agent' and .plist files.

  

  

  I force quit on the process of 'agent' in the activity monitor and put the folder in the trash on a case where (are not empty, but I think that all signs point to him having to be removed)

  I found nothing else on this file for my bets are that it is new, but I hope that someone else could have seen or have a better idea of what it is or what to do.

  Thank you in advance, I made an account just for this post

• How to remove "youppes."

  I don't know when a "youppes" appears in the application. And when I want to delete it, it won't let me. And it is locked.

  You may have installed one or more variants of the Trojan 'InstallMac '. Please take the following steps to disable.

  The criminal behind this attack tries to make the malware difficult to remove by varying names of the files it installs. This procedure works now, I know. It will not work in the future. Anyone finding this comment a couple of days or more after it was published should look for a more recent discussion, or start a new one.

  Back up all data before proceeding.

  1 triple - click on the line below on this page to select, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination:

  ~/Library/LaunchAgents

  In the Finder, select

  Go ▹ go to the folder...

  from the menu bar and paste it into the box that opens by pressing command + V. You won't see what you pasted a newline being included. Press return. A folder named "LaunchAgents" opens.

  2A inside of the folder that you just opened, there may be files with the name of all these forms:

  something. AppRemoval.plist

  Something.download.plist

  Something.ltvbit.plist

  Something.Update.plist

  Here, something is usually an empty string of sense, for example one of the following:

  Epolife

  InstallMac

  Javeview

  Kuklorest

  Manroling

  Youppes

  Here are examples, not a comprehensive list. The chain could be anything. The point is that the same string usually appears on behalf of three or four folders.

  Lately, the striker of "InstallMac" a were quick strings 'AppRemoval', 'download', 'ltvbit' and 'update' in the names of its records. For example, you might see file names such as these, instead of the above:

  something. AppVemoral.plist

  Something.dolnwoad.plist

  Something.btvlit.plist

  Something.uadpte.plist

  You may have more than one copy of the malware, with different values of something.

  Place all of these in the trash. If there are other files whose name begins with something, those in the trash also move. Once you've done that, we may not have anything left in the LaunchAgents folder; in this case, you can remove the folder, but otherwise does not delete it. Other files in the folder are not necessarily malicious (though they may be, if you have also installed another type of malware).

  Log off or restart the computer. The Trojan horse should now be inactive.

  3. This step is optional. Open the folder as in step 1:

  ~/Library/Application Support

  and move it to the trash of the subfolders with the name, something you found in step 2.

  Do not move the Application Support folder or anything else inside.

  4. open the Applications folder. If there is an element named something, or "Hell Zip", or with any of the other names listed in step 2, then drag it to the trash.

  If in doubt, press option-command-4 key combination to get the apps by date added. Look at the apps that have been added since you first noticed the problem. If there is one, that you don't recognize, drag it to the trash.

  Empty the trash.

  If you receive an alert that the application is running, force it to quit.
