cpu ussage (W2K)

[brianbek]

In the past day or so i've noticed very poor performance from my computer, and i've also noticed that under the windows task manager under processes i have a process called vmgrb.exe running and its cpu use is at 99% constantly. I had never before seen this program and my cpu usage is usually around 5-6%. Has anyone else ever heard of this?

Have you recently signed p to morpheus or win mx or any other sort of sharing program if you have then you may be the victim of "The small Print". Aparantley there are companies who print in their agreements when you download their software. The small print contains something like "We reserve the right to use your spare processor power to lease to other companies". The company who run the sharing software sell your spare processor usage to other companies so they can do calculations in it!!!! My friend who is a computing student told me that one so It may not be true or it might be a scary fact!!!! /images/forums/icons/crazy.gif

Tell your users 90% of all computer problems can be fixed with a simple re-boot... Or just a large boot.
