You asked:
does you Mac sleep?
You mean the complete sleep? Yes, but if I want this, I switch it manually.
the command to remove helpd from starting is (in terminal)
launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchAgents/com.apple.helpd.plist
... and what would I have to enter to reactivate helpd?
Thanks.
BTW It seems no one else here has this problem. (And I have it on both of my Macs.)
