Process Tamer works...but not on all apps!

I downloaded what i saw on this site last week and was using it, though, for at least 6 months. I has an issue with process eating up my CPU every time I started windows. It was caused by 'svchost.exe' and it was related to windows updates. This utility was never able to tame it. It worked fine on many other processes, though.

I don't know if you ever figured out the issue with Kaspersky Anti Virus, but I had the same problem with Kaspersky Internet Security 2009.  Process Tamer would not change the priority of avp.exe when it was monopolizing my CPU.

Then I went into KIS Settings>Options and un-checked "Enable Self Defense."  Now Process Tamer is able to change the priority of avp.exe as necessary.

Nice find Bob  :up:

Bob G:
Thank you for Process Tamer!  As I type, Kaspersky is under control, my computer is responsive, and I am a happy camper.

Bob G:
By the way, I also have the issue with svchost.exe monopolizing my CPU while it checks for  Microsoft updates at start up.

However, Process Tamer has been successfully changing the priority of svchost.exe on both of my computers.  I am running PT v2.09.01.
