Malware blocking safe mode/updates/filevault
Hi there, I have run into a pesky malware that seems to be the ''Iworm'' malware that was going around in the last few years.
Problem is, it seems to be more advanced.
The malware has blocked me from performing updates, from turning file vault OFF so that i can enter safe mode (have also tried entering safe mode via the terminal but it blocks me from entering my password) and if it lets an antivirus run it won't pick up on anything. I have searched my library folder and found that I had the JavaW folder in Application Support. But there are no files in the JavaW folder it is (seemingly) empty. I have also looked through the LaunchAgents and LaunchDaemons folders and seen nothing relating to JavaW in them. In addition to this when turning on the computer it makes me log in twice and has done for quite some time. But i changed my password yesterday and the first time it asks me to log in I can only log in using my old password - and then the second password is the updated one? Im not sure whats going on with that but figured it was worth mentioning. It also won't recognise any USB devices plugged in so I can't back up my files or run an antivirus from a USB. Oh and it has blocked me from changing keyboard backlight and has locked volume off as well.
I can usually figure this stuff out but I've spent close to 24 hours straight researching but have come up empty. Any insight or help would be greatly appreciated. Please find attached my system specs.
