Hello Rosemary,

Database daemon It's used for Office notifications. You can get rid of it.

Make sure it's not in your Husband's account's startup items first, and also turn off notification in the Entourage preferences.

Cheers,
Ronni

Very strange problem on my Intel husband's macbook. About a week ago his macbook slowed to a crawl.
I repaired permissions, verified his disk

I've had a look at the activity monitor and the only thing that seems weird is database daemon that is running. I stopped this and it seemed better, but reappeared when he re-booted . It seems connected to a database utility in Office, which I set not to run in the background. He has no databases of any kind.



Has anybody any other solutions/suggestions?
