Please run EtreCheck and post the report here.


      https://etrecheck.com

      Click “Free download” button,  open Downloads folder, click on it to open, and then select ”Open”.

      Click on the bouncing  EtreCheck icon in the Dock.

      “Choose a problem” from the popup menu box, and then “Start EtreCheck” in the dialog.

      Click “Share Report” button in the toolbar, select “Copy to Clipboard” .

      Paste it into the reply.


Do you have any Configuration Profile installed?


  System Preferences >General > Profiles

      Open System Preferences,  select “General and click  the “Profiles” icon ( a checkmark on a gear) .

      When Profiles pane opens, select the unknown profile in the sidebar

and click the minus button at the bottom.

      I would appreciate it if you download EtreCheck, run it and post the report here..

This is a system diagnostic test.

I am seeing this malware for the first time.

This may an existing one with a different name.
