For the last few days I've had this weird little app (or something?) on my machine.
it's called org.apache.tomcat.startup.Tomcat. if I quit it it starts p again after a few minutes. I have restarted the machine a few times and it's still there. I,m not aware that I've changed any system prefs, so what can this be?
Any ideas?
Thanks
Andrew
ps also the performance of my broadband connection has suddenly fallen way off with pages taking an age to load, not in terms of once they start coming down but in terms of waiting 30 plus seconds before the page starts to load. Connected?

Sounds like you have Apache Tomcat running. It allows you to host JSP files on your webserver. I've never run it in OS X, so I can't help you much more than pointing you towards the Tomcat site. Could be affecting your bandwidth if people are actually connecting to it I guess. Good luck.

OK, makes sense, how the heck do I turn it off. If I quit it it starts up again!!!
If I search my HD for it then there is no such file!!

It could be some app you've installed that runs Tomcat embedded in the application (and restarts it whenever it finds that it's not running).
Try this in the Terminal:
sudo find / -name "*Tomcat*"
[Edit. sudo no su as first stated]
Enter your admin-password when prompted.
This will search your entire disk (including .app-folders) and report back files that matches the name Tomcat.

check the apache config file:
/private/etc/httpd/httpd.conf
perhaps search for references to this Tomcat extension and remove them? Then, it'll have no reason to load.

Developer tools come with JBoss, which currently uses Tomcat as the web container (not sure if the Dev Tools version does).
You'd never see it, because its balled something like jbossweb.sar and it's in <jboss-home>/server/default/deploy
Perhaps that's what's starting it up?
I use my own JBoss setup with Jetty as the web container, so I don't know where Dev Tools installs <jboss-home>--so head over to ADC for more info.

signatures are a waste of bandwidth
especially ones with political tripe in them.
