Malware warning keep coming ...
I have 2 users accounts on my Mac, when I am connected with my user, I keep getting the following popup with a Malware detection on the other user. I have restarted at least 20 time and it keeps coming. I actually have 2 questions:
- How do I actually get rid of this
- How can I find from which website it came or it is coming if I don't get any alert ? Web Protection plugins for Firefox and Safari (the 2 Browsers that I use) are installed and give no warning.
Here is the full path of the first Virus Found message:
/Volumes/com.apple.TimeMachine.localsnapshots/Backups.backupdb/Whitehorse/2018-03-20-223124/OSX/Users/otheruser/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/WebKitCache/Version 11/Records/E22E16BBB13EA6126296B1EDF364B583551C6359/Resource

The reported infections are in the MAC Time Machine (the backup).
From there they cannot affect your system in any way unless you revert back to one of the backups. Rest assured that if they somehow get on your system, Bitdefender will detect them and clean them.
In order to solve this issue you can either exclude the Time Machine or delete the backup and recreate it. The article below will walk you through the process:
