vjoker1988 Posted December 25, 2008 Report Share Posted December 25, 2008 Hi everyone, I greatly appreciate your help. I've been using Utorrent for a long time now and it has never given me any problems. But starting a couple of days ago, whenever I download something, even just 1 torrent, my CPU usage would go up to 100%. I don't recall making any drastic changes, I installed WINAMP and uninstalled it after trying it out but I doubt that that is the root of the problem.Anyways, here are my log files from HiJackthis and ProcessExplorer. Also I have pasted a link to my .dmp file. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I do not want to have to change to another client. Thanks so much.Hijackthis:Logfile of HijackThis v1.99.1Scan saved at 1:21:37 AM, on 12/25/2008Platform: Windows XP SP2 (WinNT 5.01.2600)MSIE: Internet Explorer v7.00 (7.00.6000.16762)Running processes:D:\WINDOWS\System32\smss.exeD:\WINDOWS\system32\winlogon.exeD:\WINDOWS\system32\services.exeD:\WINDOWS\system32\lsass.exeD:\WINDOWS\system32\Ati2evxx.exeD:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost.exeD:\WINDOWS\System32\svchost.exeD:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost.exeD:\WINDOWS\system32\spoolsv.exeD:\PROGRA~1\AVG\AVG8\avgwdsvc.exeD:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\jqs.exeD:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost.exeD:\PROGRA~1\AVG\AVG8\avgemc.exeD:\Program Files\Windows Live\Messenger\usnsvc.exeD:\WINDOWS\System32\svchost.exeD:\PROGRA~1\AVG\AVG8\avgrsx.exeD:\WINDOWS\system32\Ati2evxx.exeD:\WINDOWS\system32\WgaTray.exeD:\WINDOWS\Explorer.EXED:\WINDOWS\system32\ctfmon.exeD:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\jusched.exeD:\WINDOWS\system32\rundll32.exeD:\PROGRA~1\AVG\AVG8\avgtray.exeD:\Program Files\ATI Technologies\ATI.ACE\Core-Static\MOM.exeD:\Program Files\YourWare Solutions\FreeRAM XP Pro\FreeRAM XP Pro.exeD:\Program Files\Styler\Styler.exeD:\Program Files\ATI Technologies\ATI.ACE\Core-Static\ccc.exeD:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exeD:\Program Files\uTorrent\uTorrent.exeD:\Program Files\HijackThis\HijackThis.exeO1 -

vjoker1988 Posted December 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2008 Thanks for quick responses. I was just wondering, I've had Windows Blinds for a long time now, could it suddenly cause utorrent to act up?Update:After turning off WindowsBlind, the problem is somewhat better. But it still shows heavy CPU usage that fluctuates (for example, from 4%ish to 65%ish).One thing that sticks out is that the system idle process in task manager shows a 97 under the CPU column. I don't know if it's suppose to be like that but it seems to be an awful high number. Thanks for your help everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelittlefire Posted December 25, 2008 Report Share Posted December 25, 2008 "Idle" is idle.. it was apparently, way back when, what the programmers of the time decided to make the CPU do when it wasn't otherwise busy... as processing time was pay-by-hour/shared/$$$Like DWK says, styler/WB . . does it still show up in a process explorer log when turned off?? If you search, you'll see skinning apps have been reported and fingered as the culprit in certain cases like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vjoker1988 Posted December 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2008 Thanks for the reply.I uninstalled WindowsBlind and Styler and a check of process explorer shows no DLLs related to those programs so I'm guessing they're gone for good. But the problem is still there. I've included a link of a picture of my task manager showing the 100% usage. Maybe this will provide a little bit of help:http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=77a6da36801d6d04d2db6fb9a8902bda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelittlefire Posted December 25, 2008 Report Share Posted December 25, 2008 EEK! please save as at least PNG or JPGstart > run > mspaint at least has those options... other more robust image editors will do more options Here it is but unfortunately it doesn't show much more than before. :/ Last idea... does AVG resident shield have "web protection"?? Is there a way to exclude utorrent.exe from its active scanning temporarily at least, or to uninstall to see if it's the cause Sorry I don't have more positive news.

vjoker1988 Posted December 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2008 Sorry about the picture, forgot to change to another format :S. I did turn off the whole AVG program to see if it was conflicting but it didn't solve the problem >=(.Also, I added the Utorrent directory to the exceptions list in Resident shield and didn't work either. Thanks for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelittlefire Posted December 26, 2008 Report Share Posted December 26, 2008 Did you check AVG services from start > run > services.msc ?That would be the last third party options seeing from the PE log. Alternative explanations may stem from your korean IME (doubtful), or freeram pro, or perhaps your Ctrl-P > Advanced > Disk Cache settings in uT itself. Did you override anything there??Can you think of anything else which may preceed the problems showing up... updating your Catalyst driver? Windows update?

vjoker1988 Posted December 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2008 Well I never touched anything in the disk cache settings. The ones I have unchecked are:"Override automatic cache size and specify the size manually(MB)""Increase automatic cache size when cache thrashing""Disable Windows caching of disk reads"I also highly doubt the Korean IME from having anything to do with it. Maybe I'll check if there are new Catalyst driver or even uninstall FreeRAM Pro and post an update.Many thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelittlefire Posted December 26, 2008 Report Share Posted December 26, 2008 Yeah. OK, sometimes problems go away when you UNCHECK the windows cache of reads and writes (write is default ON)... because it doesn't always work as expected across all windows and over network shares.Like I said, out of ideas, so if you come up with something or remember anything feel free to bring it up. Otherwise, sounds like a weekend of poking at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vjoker1988 Posted December 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2008 I don't know if everything's back to normal or not, I just downloaded something and was monitoring the CPU usage. It didn't go all that high... maybe uninstalling something like Windows Blind did the trick. Going to post another update when I download again. Thanks all.Ok, I guess it's when I download from certain websites that causes the this problem. T_TI found something really weird, in add/remove programs, utorrent is listed as having a size of 9766MB...does anybody know what's going on?Thanks.
