Indeed I'm using Powerpoint to make a presentation, syslogd runaway
multiple
times a day (~dozen) since i started making my presentation.
syslogd never gave me problem when I was doing other stuff. Previous use
of
Powerpoint didn't produced that syslogd runaway so I'm guessing it comes
from
either the last 10.5.4 Leopard upgrade or Microsoft Office 2004 upgrade.
-Activity Monitor / Quiting process doesn't work, just stop it tem****arily
and it comes back
Any suggestion to stop my Macbook pro getting so hot?

OS and Powerpoint got the lastest update
