Strangest thing is happening. My MacBook Pro (2.33GHz) won't automatically sleep according to the settings in System Preferences.

If I go :apple: -> Sleep it will sleep.
If I close the lid it will sleep.

But something is preventing it from sleeping on its own. I have unplugged all usb devices and turned airport off, so it has to be something IN the computer causing it. Any ideas? It worked fine up until about a week or so ago and I haven't done anything different.
 
nope, don't do the whole torrent thing. as i said before, it worked fine up until a week ago and haven't installed anything new.
 
I live/work really close to an apple store. But since this is sort of a minor thing was hoping I could find something on the forums before going to the genius bar.

Just seems so random that this issue would pop up seemingly for no reason.
