    Hey,  

    Sorry that's it's been so long.   So, my MacBookPro2015 died 4 times this month, in the same apple certified shop 3 times, and I mailed my mac to apple 1 time.  IO board replaced 3 times, power adapter replaced 5 times this month.   After the first visit to this shop is when ReadyNAS Time Machine backup found this virus.

    I JUST got my mac back again with a new IO board, Adapter board replacement,  Audio something replacement.  I just hope my mac will wake up in the morning.

     

    Last week the Apple Tech claims the IO board was killing my adapter & Laptop.  Then the new IO board died again, tech claiming it wasn't seated properly.

    Then this computer shop replaced it and prays the problems are over.  ( GOSH.. I wish I had bought an HP laptop)

     

    BUT... Oddly .. I got home,  Opened Chrome & Chrome gave me a warning that ~Something~ was present on my system, for me to fix it before restarting Chrome..

    ---  SO..   I formated my Mac,  Reinstalled,  Updated,  added back stuff..  and I deleted the ReadyNAS Timemachine backup.. and NOW doing a New Fresh TM backup.

    When I get home from work tomorrow, Saturday, June 24th.. I'll see if ReadyNAS finds anything in it's backup.
