Once again, it's all just words, i'll give you the gist - tell me if you recognise anything? - UserEventAgent - SystemUIServer - Speech Synthesis Server - (Sophos, which is still running) - rcd - prl_naptd - pboard - netsession_mac_8d9378b (this is the program that asked for permission) - mdworker - Mac_SwapperDemon - loginwindow - Launchd - imagent - IJEPWAgent - HP Event Handler - Growl Helper App - (several entries titled Google Chrome Renderer, and one named Chrome Helper) - Fontd - Folder Actions Dispatcher - one entry just called 'firewall' - Dock - AppleSpell.service - Airport Base Station Agent - 3500-4500 Series Button Monitor (I think this is related to a printer I haven't used in years...) I recognise most of them, but there are few that i just don't recognise. Does anyone here see anything worrying? [/QUOTE]
