Mac Mini late 2010... I noticed a few days ago, every time I place my cursor over the upper right hand menu... I get the spinning ball of death. my applications and performance becomes lethargic and unresponsive. Mail and Safari become unresponsive. I get the feeling its something running in my background but I cant pin it... any one go thru this?

Open your Activity Monitor and take a look at what's using all the CPU and resources. Applications -> Utilities -> Activity Monitor.app
