>>I found out what it is. It's some sort of client the guy who set up the machine put on from distributed.net. I havent't had to time to look at it much but i understand tt takes th place of the "null execution process"(?). I.e. if nothing is using CPU cycles, it uses them ... all of them. And it's suppopsed to immediately stop using them if something else wants them.

Well, I don't know all of what this thing is used for. I just wanted to find out what was sucking the CPU cycles and stop it. When I have time ( when do I ever have time? :-) ) I'll look at it and see what it's for exactly.
