Hi,
Since some days after going to the net, I find it always displays the sand timer now even I do click anything and just put it on the desktop. I tried to open Windows Task Manager and it shows CPU Usage is around 60%.
What could be the cause?
Please help.

Configuration: Windows XP
Firefox 3.0.5

Hello,
60% of CPU usage is high indeed. It might be that you caught a virus while surfing the net. Installing an antivirus should remove it and bring your computer to the normal state.
