Is your Mac running slow or the fans running too often or continuously? You may have inadvertently installed a "helper" app called MSHELPER that may be running in the background along with some other app you recently installed. Here's how to get rid of it. There used to be such an app called Mshelper that was installed with older versions of Microsoft Office, but this is NOT that and it does not run on modern Macs. PING!

My kids download a lot of crap games and apps, many of which have this "Mac Helper" and other similar garbage bundled along with it. Seems I'm constantly trying to search out this stuff and remove it.
Parents, be aware of what your kids download!
