Strange thing in "top" ...

Ok, if I go to the terminal and type "top" or go to the activity monitor I get hundreds of processes called "SmallScanner" owned by root.

Any ideas what this is?

Cheers
 
I have two processes entitled "SmallScanner" owned by me, consuming half of my CPU. The activity monitor says that the parent process is DiskMountNotify.

I believe this is slowing down my powerbook. ANy idea what it is?
