"speech downloader is trying to modify your system settings"
Hello --
I have been seeing a pop-up window that has the message shown in the tag line of this thread:
"speech downloader is trying to modify your system settings".
- I hit the "cancel" button each time. It's come up maybe six times in the course of a few weeks.
- It does NOT have the "more information" link that normal Apple software updates offer.
- It requests that I enter my password to allow this (I have not done so).
- Since it comes out of the blue and not the way other Apple Updates occur, and since I can't seem to find any reference to 'speech downloader' in my applications or other settings, I suspect this is a spam or malware.
Can anyone offer information, suggestions, or a solution?
Thanks in advance.
