OK fair enough...now here's a question for you:

I recently dumped a lot of my pref files. I just went over to the X 
machine and found that something had again "taken" it over. I made sure 
that automatic QT and Software updates are turned OFF. Is there a central 
location from which to turn off INDEXING?

If so I can't seem to find it.
