I'm running XP Pro on a Dell Dim 4600. Recently the OS
has been bogging down at least once a day. When I check
performance with Task Manager, javaw.exe is running the
cpu at 99% capacity, and the CPU is at 100%. I'm not
running java explicitly. Tonight I simply visited FedEx
and USPS sites to calculate shipping costs. I then closed
Internet Explorer. When I re-opened IE, the system ground
to a halt. Culprit was javaw. No other apps were
running, except those in the background that I've been
using for years (Norton AV Corporate Edition, PiKeeper.
Terminating javaw clears the problem.
