^ how does one go about finding this ghost daemon running ShipIt every 2 seconds? The 'ShipIt' executable is nowhere on my filesystem. Nowhere, 100%. This is really getting me frustrated here. What made you guys run a service with full root privileges? It's writing to a readonly file (the logfile) which is owned by root. Insane.

EDIT: it's either in the .app itself, or in ~/.atom, don't know, don't care, removed both, finally the spamming stopped. Lesson learned.
