Q: I have a strange problem with my RAM being taken over by Installers. When I check the Activity Monitor, 3 Installers are open and they start at around 80 MB of RAM used to about 7 or 8 after 10 minutes or so.

I have a strange problem with my RAM being taken over by Installers. When I check the Activity Monitor, 3 Installers are open and they start at around 80 MB of RAM used to about 7 or 8 Gigs after 10 minutes or so. I have to force them to quit, but I don't know what I'm closing or why they open in the first place. Apps downloaded from iTunes ???

Also, the Console has opened with this same message a few times, but I don't know what it means.

Any help would be appreciated.

iTunes

A:

You have adware installed. Run the report again and where you see the red Adware, click Remove. Once complete, run the report again and post a copy into a new reply.

Or download this program which was written by Thomas Reed, a long time poster. The program will do the work for you which makes it easy.

What should I do if Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for Mac didn't solve my problem?

Most people advise not to use cleaning programs. They can destroy your computer operation as they may already have done.

After un-installing, use this program to make sure you got all the pieces.

Hi,

The last is a picture of Terminal's window.
Just because it lists "Console" does not mean it has anything to do with that app.

You have not said why or what you are trying to install so I can't help with that.
You could use Activity Monitor to Quit them.
After highlighting an item use the X in a stop sign type icon and Confirm Force Quit.

Thanks Ralph
What I failed to make clear is that I was not installing anything. I did an update with iTunes, for a lot of apps two days ago, and it was taking forever for them to do so. I even had to quit a few times because it was slowing down my Mac like crazy. I was just wondering if it wasn't residual Installers from the updates that were "waking up" and deciding to install themselves. The problem is that it gobbles up so much RAM that it makes the computer almost unusable... unless I quit the process of course. So, I still don't know what they are trying to install.

As for the Terminal window (sorry, I goofed on that one), it's been popping up for no reason several times this month and since I'm not geeky enough, I don't know what it means. Lots of things I don't know! lol

The Open Files and Ports may give a hint as to what is installing.

Is there anything in your Login Items that looks odd?

Hello Eric
I guess from the type in red that there are some issues, maybe you can explain what they are ?
Thank you

Hello Eric
Thank you for your help. It seems to have fixed the problem. Interestingly, it also deleted MacKeeper (that keeped bugging me about updating anyways), which now I know is good. Now, should I look into anything that is in red?
Cheers
Pierre

You are welcome. Use the links I posted earlier to get rid of MacKeeper and CleanMyMac. Also review this, which I posted earlier.

Hi Bob
I'm not tech enough to know what to look for, in this case that they have not been removed. Where in the report can I see this?
