Before Entourage was updated to support Spotlight's indexing, I made sure that Spotlight was set up to not access the folder. Now there is a preference where you can turn the indexing on or off. It may be worth a try to see if that is the cause--it makes sense that Spotlight would be trying to index new data the moment it comes in.
I don't think it would be Rosetta--especially since I'm running it on a PowerBook, not a MacBook Pro or MacBook. Besides, other than a slight delay on boot-up, the Office suite as a whole has done well under Intel, according to all the reviews I've seen, and on the Intel machines I've been in touch with. I think I'll try turning Spotlight off and see what that does... -- Blessings, Fred On 7/28/06 6:23 PM, "Remo Del Bello" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On 7/28/06 11:04 AM, George deftly typed out: > >> I have seen the same for awhile now and agree it is very bothersome.
