Well, we figured something out..... the system overload seems to have been related to something calling itself WSup.exe and also something calling itself WToolsA.exe. I don't know if these were supposed to be there or not....but they were in Program Files/Common Files/WinTools.
Does anybody know if this is supposed to be there? I thought all the windows stuff would be in the windows folder. I haven't intentionally downloaded anything like this, though this appears to have been in there as an Internet Explorer browser add-on. Funny thing, these files (which I have deleted by the way, just to be on the safe side), though named .exe files, had icons that appeared to be Internet Explorer PAGES, not apps. Anyone else run into something like this? I've still got a few files in this folder which will not allow me to delete them....but the major problem of the CPU usage jumping around seems to be resolved.
Oh, and it was definately NOT normal jumping around......and another funny thing it was doing.....I would move my 'start' bar to the side of the window (left side, if you'd like to know) and lock it. Suddenly, over and over, the bar would move back to the bottom of the screen. I think this was related to the other problem, and I'm really not sure, but it hasn't done it since I deleted those files. The other files in the folder claim that they are protected or in use by another program and will not let me delete them. I don't even know if this file is supposed to be there, so I'm not sure if I should continue trying. Any ideas?
Oh btw, bf is much happier now that the desktop is running the way it's supposed to.
Oh, & sorry for tagging, I'm new to this board and came here in desperation.....
would like to know if it's safe to try to delete these other files and/or even desirable, as I don't know where they came from (the file names left after I deleted WSup.exe & WToolsA.exe are {rezasc.wzg, rmhgxlmu.wzg, WinTools.exe, WToolsB.dll, WToolsC.cfg, WToolsD.cfg, WToolsP.cfg, as well as a temp folder & an update folder-both empty})
I am leaving them for now until I know what they are and HOW to delete them if that's what I need to do.
