Hi,
A couple of days ago I brought my Macbook Pro to a relative's house and connected to her wireless network. Since then I noticed Google search results in Chrome featured an unwanted group of sponsored results at the top of the page... with a tagline saying something like "RocketTab powered by Advertise". One of my Chrome extensions had gone rogue, and I isolated it, and uninstalled it. That problem disappeared.
I also ran MalwareBytes Anti-Malware, and it discovered no threats.
Today I noticed two puzzling things: Finder shows a shared device called 5cd4537q28 (number altered to protect the innocent!) which I don't recognize... and the Keychain Access window has popped up, showing the list of keys on my login keychain. It was originally unlocked when it first appeared, then I locked it, because that seemed appropriate. In addition to keys with human-readable names, I see a private key labeled with a very long string of seemingly random alphanumeric characters, which I believe was the one highlighted when I first switched to the Keychain Access window.
Any idea what's going on, and what I can do to protect my system? Thanks in advance for any light you can shed!
