But what's accounting for the 32.1%? I have about 30% usage all the time too and the top couple entries add up to less than 5 percent followed by a bunch of processes with a cpu usage of 0%. So what's using 25% of my cpu when I'm not doing anything? Thanks, Leo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
