PBS Process Warning?
hello,
so i have been noticing the PBS process starting up at random times, including when I am not using word, haven't used the cut & paste option, and haven't been doing anything else that would launch it in the activity monitor. everytime i try to quit it, it won't let me so I have to do a force quit, at which point it sends up the following message:
as i understand it, PBS is only a peripheral process not an essential one, so why is a log out warning attached to it? quitting it will log me out from what?
i ignored it, forced a quit and nothing bad happened, so its behavior seems kind of shady. i know everyone says macs dont have a lot to worry about in terms of viruses and hacking etc, but that was before all the interlinked devices became such a common everyday reality....
