First and foremost, I want to say “Thanks” to each of the responses to my 
original inquiry.  I appreciate the good intentions of all concerned.

However, none of the points raised factor in this problem.  I typically have 
only 3 or 4 apps running at any given time; Finder, E-Mail, Checkbook Pro and 
Safari.  Very rarely do I ever run more apps than the previously mentioned four 
apps.

As for memory, I have a 1 Terabyte hard drive with hardly more than 20% of the 
available disk space used.

I only turn off this Mac when severe weather is forecast so if routine disk 
maintenance is being done, it isn’t degraded by a “power off” condition.

In fact, while replying to this thread I had that dreaded “E-Mail is not 
responding” message.

And, oh yes, I do have anti-virus running in the background all the time.  I 
realize that might account for some performance drag, but this “Application is 
not responding” message is occurring much too often.
