Kevin: Since I posted, that program is no longer listed in
the Task Manager, and before I search and delete it, I would
like to know what it is. I'm not all that comfortable editing
the registry and the CPU is now at 2-18 %. Why would a
program appear in task manager, use up all those resources and
then disappear, I'm I missing something?

Thanks for the help.
