Dear Apple Community!

I would like to ask you about this subject: searchpartyuseragent, is it causing any problem with the mac os? is it a malware infestation or anything like this?

I read something in the past, maybe it is a process at icloud or facetime procedure....

Thank you in advance,

Best regards,

Attila

I'm concerned that my Mac has been compromised. I am concerned that my Mac may have been hacked. I was browsing the website when I saw a gift icon appear. When I clicked on it, a message appeared that said "#wlecome". After clicking on it, the FaceTime app opened, but it did not appear to be making a call. It simply opened the app. When I visited the website again, the icon was no longer there. I am concerned because I have never seen this icon before and I am not sure what it means. I am also concerned because the FaceTime app opened after I clicked on the icon. I do not have any known contacts on FaceTime, so I am not sure why it would open. I have been keeping my Mac up to date with the latest software updates from Apple. I am running macOS Sonoma 14.0 I would appreciate any advice you can give me on how to check if my Mac has been hacked. [Edited by Moderator]

Solex Yahoo Search Results I'm posting this here because I couldn't find any reference to this anywhere online after HOURS of research. My computer was hijacked and redirected to "Solex Yahoo Search Results" on both Safari and Firefox. I looked through all of the Apple Community info, researched several websites and articles, did everything including deleting unneeded programs, looking at Launch Agent and Daemons and everything else, checking DNS and Proxies in the Network, checking to make sure the Preferences was set properly, and downloading, paying for, and running a malware program that didn't find it. Finally, my nephew, a programmer, figured out that it was something to do with DNS, and through Terminal found the redirect and we deleted it with "etc" in the programming language. I don't know what that means, but thank goodness for him and FaceTime. I hope this helps someone else. I can't figure out how I can be the only one who had that specific problem, and it was only solved with someone who knows a programming language. I'm leaving this here hoping that someone who needs it finds it.
