My iMac was idle. The screensaver blackout and then my harddrive started spinning after a few minutes I got worried and started activity monitor. I show the same thing you described above. Because I didn't know what was going on, I pulled out my network cable. The Find process, parent SH and user Nobody stopped. When I replugged my network cable it didn't happen again. Questions: - would Spotlight use a network connection to update the index? - if not, why did it stopped after I pulled out the network cable. With kind regards, Marlon.

Questions:
- would Spotlight use a network connection to update the index?
- if not, why did it stopped after I pulled out the network cable.
