Hello Forum,

I am sometimes wondering why my Mac suddenly is slowing down with everything, especially in the Finder or the System Preferences - as it is right now.

After starting Activity Monitor I see that two processes - AppSandboxSMLoginItemEnabler and usernoted - each use constantly between 20 and 25 % of the CPU.

Is this slowing down my computer, and can I do something to prevent this? What are these processes doing?

Greetings - desertman
