Hi
I'm new to this forum and would appreciate some help

I use ghostsurf (privacy edition) and notice that it periodically uses nearly 100% cpu time (every few seconds). THis is occurs when I'm not actively using ghosturf, and its just idling in the background. Contacted tenebril and they haven't been helpful. And I have checked that the crash diagonostics logging is not on.

My PC: 2.5Ghz athlon pc runs xp with 512mb of ram. The virtual memory is automatically managed by the system, I haven't used a custom setting.

The high cpu % coincides with a high page fault/sec activity, as seen in the xp 'performance monitor' or similarly the 'process explorer' utility. I think this is a soft page fault, as 'page file usage history' doesn't change when ghostsurf is closed down? And nor does there appear to be excessive disk read/writes according the performance monitor (assuming I'm interpreting the info correctly). More crudely, my hard drive isn't crunching away, the red light lights up momentarily after every a 5 or 6 seconds. Although under the both the columns 'i/o write & read bytes' in 'process explorer', ghostsurf is continuously generating these?

Inquiring why ghostsurf is using so much cpu resources (and none of my other programs running the background do)

cheers
