SoftwareUpdateCheck process won't quit - hogs processor
Just gave my wife a new MacBook for Xmas last month and it has the strangest bug. SoftwareUpdateCheck seems to run in the background endlessly and even when quitting it from Activity Monitor, it reappears. I've already noted the difficulty of storing packages and running the updates and such, and we definitely had that issue on her MacBook (in which data was migrated from her iBook), but eventually got the updates to stick.
Does anyone know what is causing this or how to disable the process so the MacBook can sleep and have processor time for other things? Her OS is totally up to date and I'm wondering how to squash this bug.
Thanks!
