Git hub asked me for my key chain access so ok I gave it.

then the processor a few minutes later went >100% and temp  100C

checked processes.....could not imediately see what the issue was, stopped firefox.

then as I was doing this an icon poped up that was sparkle_update and looked like it was installing something then finished whatever it was doing

I am about to nuke my mac book pro.

any knowledge of this by anyone?

I dont keep any BTC info on this computer as it is internet connected. Always cold storage. But that doesn't matter as I will not tolerate any virus on any computer.

I have hard drives pre ghosted ready to install for such situations so its fairly easy to do.
