10.5: One fix for a runaway syslogd process
Authored by: Brian Nash on Wed, Dec 5 2007 at 10:14AM PST

I found "NUDC" in my "StartUpItems" folder was the cause of my problems. The files are installed with "Now Up To Date and Contact 5". Delete the "NUDC" folder, restart the computer and cross your fingers. I opened "Console" just to double check that I wasn't still getting continuous "__THE_PROCESS_HAS_FORKED_AND_YOU_CANNOT_USE_THIS_COREFOUNDATION_FUNCTIONALITY___YOU_MUST_EXEC__() to debug." logs. - fixed!
The lesson? - Even evaluation software can burn you, especially when you forget you installed it to begin with. "Now Up To Date and Contact 5" is not compatible with Leopard.
