CC .9
Build 103
MBM 5.07
Have always wondered why my system showed a high cpu usage all the time, so I took some time to try and find the problem. Not
sure what I found though. Summary shown below.
11-15: deactivated everything not needed in MSCONFIG.
9:15P deactivated whatever else showed up in SYSTRAY not
covered by MSCONFIG.
MSCONFIG: (left active)

Scan registry
Sys tray
Load Pwr. Profile #1
MBM 5

Left system running overnight.
CPU usage @ 26%.
11-16: deleted all temp files and cookies.
8:30A CPU usage dropped to 3%.
1:05P checked usage; still at 3%.
brought system out of sleep--went to 26% .
fired up IE (5.5, SP2) to home page w/no increase in %.
went to weather.com; shot up to 81% and stayed.
closed out IE and back to desktop; stayed @ 81%.
let system go to sleep.
5:20P system brought out of sleep; still @ 81%.
shut down, reboot.
back to 3%.
fired up IE to homepage only; stayed at 3%.
kept system up thru mouse movements.
6:00P brought up TOMS HARDWARE site; went to 80%.
closed out IE and back to desktop; stayed @ 80 - 83 %.
kept system up as before.
6:07P fired up IE again to homepage: dropped to 1% steady.
closed out IE to desktop; spiked to 81%.
fired up IE again to homepage; dropped to 1 - 3 %.
closed out IE to desktop; spiked to 80%.
rebooted and back to desktop; 3%.
Ran --- AdAware / BoClean (trojans) / SpyCop (spyware)
NAV (viruses)-----nothing found.
At first, it seemed that IE left some process running after
closing out of it (having been to a site other than the homepage).
But then it seemed to reverse itself ( 6:07P ) .
Is it an OS / memory leak issue OR is there something in the
CC / MBM software not updating correctly OR what ???
Anybody want to venture a guess.....
thanks
