My computer was a little bit slow, so I took a look at my istats widget to look what's going on and I saw that the software «ardagent» was taking 97.2% of the total process!!!

What is ardagent, never saw it, never eared of it before!!!

I took a quick look on the internet to understand that it's something with remote management so I changed my preferences to cut the access to remote login and management, and ardagent disaapeared of the processes.

My question is, IS THERE SOMEBODY SPYING ON ME? Or it's just something normal when remote login and management are open?
Thanks for your answers! ;))
