'The file 'Update Info.plist' couldn't be opened'

[betbet]

Could anyone help me with this problem:

every 2 hours i receive the error message : 'The file 'Update Info.plist' couldn't be opened' followed by "Cancel" or "Open Intego Backup Assistent"

I don't use the program Intego. I maybe installed it once in the past, but i already uninstalled it...

Somebody know how to solve this?

How did you uninstall it? The message suggests that the program is still active on your computer.

To uninstall there is this Knowledge Base article

-If you still prefer to only uninstall Intego software, please use the Uninstall function provided by any Intego installer.
This method will work for both licensed and trial versions of the Intego software.

-If you have already tried to manually uninstall portions of Intego software, this will lead to a partial uninstall, even if you used Finder spotlight search to locate Intego files.
In this case, you will need first to reinstall Intego software before being able to proceed to a clean and complete uninstall.


Note:
If you don't have an Intego installer on hand to uninstall Intego software, you can download the following tool:

Can't uninstall Intego backup since it doesn't show up in the Uninstaller list (that I downloaded from the link provided here... thanks)... I have never used the program and don't know how it got here, but it just won't go away!

After these messages started showing up, my MacBook Pro started malfunctioning and the "No Airport Card Installed" started showing up, when there is in fact an airport card installed. What a mess. Any ideas?

Macs can get viruses. They just don't, since no Mac OS X viruses exist in the wild. Macs can also get other forms of malware, of which there are a handful in the wild, in the form of trojans.

Same goes for me, including not recognizing airport card. I was told to "reinstall system software" after wiping hard drive. I have to buy a bigger external hard drive to do a big backup on, but I don't know which one to buy because they all have terrible reviews of failures on Amazon. So the problem persists. Help!
