I am trying to concentrate and write my book, yet my Mac Pro laptop is thinking it has a jet engine powered by termo-nuclear reactor. In another words it is hot and noisy. I check running apps with Control-tab and see nothing suspicious running. I open Activity Monitor and I see that Kies it cranking at 30%, Force closing the offender instantly brings cool peace to my poor Mac.
Kies - a poorly written software that wants to be iTunes, but really it is only annoying.
/Applications/Utilities/Activity\ Monitor.app
