    deliver mail to two accounts?

    Hi, I see there are no new messages here so this question my fall on deaf ears; but here goes. I want incoming mail for one user (user1) to NOT go to his mailbox but instead to go to two different mailboxes (user2 and user3). All users are on the same host. I can redirect mail to one of the...

    CPU usage too high

    Hi galacticmushroom, That's a good question. I've never had to do that since XP. First, there may be some settings in the BIOS. Take a look. See if you can change IRQ assignments. If not, see if the BIOS has a feature to "Let Windows manage resurces" or something like that. If you find...

    CPU usage too high

    CPU usage too high

    Thanks intelwizrd. I tried disabling my internet connection but in my case it didn't help. I don't think your fix works in my case. My network comm rate is hugging zero when I'm not explicitly accessing the net. Thanks again, PP

    CPU usage too high

    I too have the same problem: very high cpu utilization along with high idle time and no processes taking significant cpu time. I've run several spyware checkers: Ad-aware, Spybot, PestPetrol, HijackThis. And a full virus scan with etrust ezAntiVirus. So far I have not been able to find a...
