I am using Windows XP (lang.: en-U.K.). I recently found that an application
called "httpd.exe" is running all the time (when the computer is on) and used
up lots of the "CPU usage", from 10%~98%. My computer slows down graduatlly.
When I tried to delete the "httpd.exe" from C:\WINDOWS and the related PF
file from C:\WINDOWS\Prefetch, it "disappeared" again after several seconds.
Also, when I tried to "End process" from the Task Manger. It also
"disappeared" in the "processes" list again. What can I do further in order
to stop or delete that application so that my computer won't slows down again
becaused of that?
