Suspicion of malware - MBP humming very wildly for no reason.
Hi everyone,
My Macbook Pro - El Capitan 10.11.4, mid-2010 - is installed with Avast Free Mac Security. I have scanned my download folder from time to time.
Recently, my MBP occasionally has wild humming sound, probably the CPU fan, out of nowhere. The room is cool and well ventilated, I have no program running except word, excel, and google chrome. It happens 3, 4 times a day.
My questions are: 1) Is this because of malware/spyware, and how to eliminate the noise. 2) Which antivirus/anti-malware/anti-spyware will best protect my MBP.
Thank you for any advices.
MacBook Pro (15-inch Mid 2010)
