I'm fairly certain that Ubittorrent messed up my user account on my old Mac, and now I am really leery to start it up on my new Mac. I also have no idea how to go about diagnosing whether I have malware or something, because I have never run into this issue on a Mac before. I also have had trouble setting limits on uploads so all my bandwidth isn't sucked away, and ChatGPT was not effective with its advice. Usually I leave it running for days on end though, and I also don't delete.

Malwarebytes for mac, should be a free scan. Ive had great luck with it before. I am a long time IT erm person so ask me if you have questions.
