Page Faults out the wazooo...

[baffled...]

I've been running swdoctor for almost a year now with mixed emotions about it... it's a pig, basically.

I noticed today during a reboot that it took longer than normal to run it's course after startup (normal being too long to start with) and while watching it in task manager, I noticed that it creates literally millions of page faults. As I write this, with machine having been booted 15 mins ago, there are nearly 6 million page faults attributed to swdoctor.exe with more being created every tic. The i/o reads are only around 11k.

So, is this something that is sop for swdoctor or is this something out of the ordinary? Is my memory going bad?

Thanks...

What version number of Spyware Doctor are you using?

You can check the version by clicking 'help' and then 'about'

Can you also get a screenshot?
