On one of my accounts on this machine, when they open IE 6 several hundred
REALEVENT.EXE tasks are started and bring the machine to its knees.

This onlY happens on one accout. I am using symtanic Internet Security and
it does not detect a virus.
 
The realevent.exe process is a scheduler for RealOne Player. It will
periodically download content from realnetworks.com. It is not required for
RealOne player to work correctly and so can be terminated.

Thanks Tom. I have found that information on the net, but I don't understand
why this only happens on one account where 300-500 REALEVENT.exe tasks are
started
