Since your response, I uninstalled all VPN, cleaner apps. No restart problems, but now I get repeated “force quit application….your system has run out of application memory” messages. I have uninstalled most apps, but still get this. I will try the etrecheck idea next.


I noticed an iLife slideshows screen saver appeared in the list of applications running, and it wanted a whopping 56 Gigbyte memory slot.
