333570 2005-03-13 06:15:00 is your P4 a Prescott? have you got the patch for it for SP2? Prescott (11)
333571 2005-03-13 06:27:00 Dunno if it Prescott, how can you tell? Its a 2.6 GHz CPU

I think I found the problem Application - Spybot 1.3

When I finally was able to access and see what was running, I first went to check CPU usage and saw the CPU usage was surging. I then went to the applications running menu and went through the list checking each item - by the way, a real good site for startup apps is ... Sysinfo (www.sysinfo.org)

I noticed the TeaTimer.exe (Spybot) was surging in its memory usage.
Have uninstalled Spybot and am currently d/loading Spybot 1.4 to see if thats any better.
Just thort I would let yas know, thanx for the help, and maybe this helps someone else :)
