I am appreciating the irony that Malwarebytes is itself malware.
I removed the app from my Mac using the uninstaller and keep finding straggler files related to the app. One in particular is dangerous -- I am seeing a "Malwarebytes Agent" process in my Activity Monitor that is causing a memory leak and slowing down my Mac significantly. I cannot simply quit or even force quit that process -- I have to kill it with Terminal. It reappears shortly thereafter and the cycle repeats itself.
Has anyone found themselves in a similar situation and able to find the files related to that process? I've run a deep search of my Mac, including hidden files, and cannot find it so it must be under another name, this subterfuge being further evidence that it is malware, as is the fact that I cannot get rid of it in my Menu bar.
