        Has anyone else experienced this problem with using Sygate
Personal Firewall Pro build 1117 and Windows XP?

If you log off one user, and log in another SMC.EXE suddenly utilizes
all of your CPU, so bad that your mouse slows down and you have to
kill the process. I experience this _EVERY_ time during a log off and
log back in as another user. This is not a _switch user_ problem
either. I'm talking about a normal log off, log in.

Anyone else at all?

Thnx!
