When I log into my computer, it works fine for me. But when I log in as my Wife, AOL eats up the whole CPU (it reads at 100% all of the time) and runs very slowly.
I did the whole "CTRL-ALT-DELETE" thing and saw that some AOL program was using like 97-98% of the power. But only when she's logged in. How do I stop this so that she can have a decent computer experience? TIA -------------------- Baruk Khazâd! Khazâd ai-mênu!

hit Alt Crtl Del then click the processes tab see what is using the cpu/ram and do a google search on it see if any one else had that problem (that is what I have done in the past) unless of course it just says aol
