Brock - can you:
$ pkill updatemanagernotifier
$ rm ~/.updatemanager/notify/opensolaris-lastcheck
$ /usr/bin/python2.4 /usr/lib/updatemanagernotifier -d

If this does not chew CPU then come out of it and run it again:
$ /usr/bin/python2.4 /usr/lib/updatemanagernotifier -d

And send us the output. I'm trying this out on my machine and its 
behaving normally, without chewing CPU. I'm running  snv_101a on the 
metal, on a Mac Book Pro (dual core, 4 Meg RAM), what machine are you on?

The symptoms you describe are exactly those of 3835. Could you also send 
me your /usr/lib/updatemanagernotifier and 
/etc/gconf/schemas/updatemanager-preferences.schemas

I'm not at a build machine, we'll look into it tomorrow. Could you give 
Padraig or myself remote access to the box?

Thanks,

JR
