My cpu usage routinely goes to 100% because of vsserv.exe. My hard drive routinely begins crunching and crunching for minutes on end during which time I can't do squat. My emails take forever to download and routinely time out before they complete. This has all started within the last 6 months or so, possibly when BitDefender "upgraded" me to 2010 but I can't be sure. I've uninstalled and reinstalled but continue to have dismal performance. I am using cable internet but might as well be using dial up. My system is Windows XP SP 3, Pent 4, 1.12 G RAM. Not the latest and greatest but it worked fine until this. What's up with this?
