[QUOTE="hoody, post: 1817374, member: 290804"] I don't know what's going on here, but I got this reply from Jake (MacInWin). It hasn't come up on here. [COLOR="#FF0000"]When I run Detectx Swift, it returns zero, which means to me that ALL of those items are suspect. The ones with a leading "." are being hidden from you as a casual user, which is very suspect. None of them are present on my clean system. I think if you want to see what is triggering the alert, you can check on the arrow to the left of each item and it may expand. Given I haven't gotten any alerts, I can't test that for you. If you have a current backup, I'd say just let DetectX delete all of them. If you don't have a current backup, make one, then run DetectX again and let it do its thing. If DetectX and the deletion of the suspect files then fixes the problem, make another new backup before you do anything else. From what I have read, it's particularly hard to really expunge it, but let's see what DetectX can do first.[/COLOR] I'll have a try at that and see what happens. [/QUOTE]
