Best way to find malware/spyware w/o external app or antivirus? [Mint]

I'm running Linux Mint on a Minibox Mini Pro 2 [only a couple weeks old], believe I may have installed it incorrectly, and noticed two times so far a severe lag, where one time it froze completely, and the other time, it slowed down considerably for about 20 minutes.

As it's new, and there's hardly anything on it, I had to presume someone got access to it because of possible wrong order while first setting everything up. Is there a way to look in my code for specific irregular lines?

Any and all help would be appreciated;
Linux is supreme.

-Much appreciation,
and of course with kindest regardslatest?d=yIl2AUoC8zA latest?i=hd7sCW6f7gU:jOpkVIRZv1g:F7zBnMy latest?i=hd7sCW6f7gU:jOpkVIRZv1g:V_sGLiP latest?d=qj6IDK7rITs latest?i=hd7sCW6f7gU:jOpkVIRZv1g:gIN9vFwhd7sCW6f7gU
