About once a week while I am on the Internet...a small window appears on my screen that says "Updating Macintosh HD". It sits there and loads something for about 30-45 seconds then finishes. Does anyone have a clue what this is??

One more thing!! I believe it says "updating Macintosh HD index"...if that makes a difference. Thanks!

Sherlock is trying to update the index of your HD, it is used for find by content searching. You can set a specific time or turn it off if you open Sherlock II and select find by content and then check the indexing volumes preference. I don't use it that often. It allows you to search for specific words or text on your HD, in case you can't recall the name of your file.
