Under the View menu in Activity Monitor is an item called Quit  
process, this quits the monitoring of the process or the process  
itself? Why is this under the View menu? And for anyone who does not  
use iTunes (I know I don't know what I am missing!) is it ok to turn  
it off permanently and how do you do that and can it be turned back  
on at will? Or is it too complicated to get into the startup items  
and invisible files. Or does one need to be booted from outside the  
volume it is on? Would this be "futzing" too much?

I notice that "invisible" is not on the command-f find file list of  
properties, I thought it was in older OSs? Also when getting info on  
this startup there is a permanent "Fetching" (and "Calculating Size")  
but no getting there.

I love starting my day with the G-List and some conundrums...
