I've been getting high cpu usage notifications for fire fox while on the site. 97% + sometimes on one cpu.  I got it on my note book and home computer. I kind of expect it on the note book but it kind of surprised me on the home computer. It is a little bit old (Anything older then yesterday is old.)  but really does not have that show up else where. Normally I can open more tabs then I have space across the top with out it showing up.

Check in your task manager and see if ccvetmsg.exe is running. If it is, turn it off. It's a function of FireFox which is installed by Mozilla and Computer Associates to scan for viruses in real time. If you have an anti-virus already installed, you do not need it. If you don't go to places that are dangerous, you don't need it running. It's the real resource hog in a Windows system with FireFox.

Hi Golddigger. Checked for ccvetmsg.exe and its not running. (At least right now.) Opened google news and 10 random different news articles. 8 to 12 % cpu. Closed out all but google news and opened this topic. Just viewing the topic about 18% cpu. Moving to reply 28%. Right now I'm wondering what else might have been going on? Possibly one or more of the programs were updating. Also I can't remember how many tabs I had open at the time it hit. It may have been a combination of all.  If it turns up again I'll try to see what all is running and drop it in the computer forum. I keep my start up pretty clean. Also checked to see if something like adobe, java updaters were in there. They keep turning up like a bad penny.

Golddigger I figured it out. I over thought the problem. (Actually under thought but....)

I recently upgraded to Norton 360 from just the internet security suite. Trying to keep a standard across my immediate family, and extended family. $69 bucks for three computer licenses and across 9 different computers. Also being able to keep all the same so when I get that phone call about their computer makes it a little easier. The norton notification is for a single cpu out of the cpu's on the machine, looking at task manager its total cpu usage so no real problem. Only at 1/4 of the total. Just disabled the norton alert. I figured out I had been reading an article and opened another internal site link or more while continuing to place keep the original. CPU usage for the site is pretty high, but for most computers no real problem to keep up. 

Appreciate the help.

And I have a confession to make. I gave you the wrong file name. ccevtmgr.exe is a Symantec file from Norton so you did find it. Had i given you the correct information, you would probably have found it sooner. Here's more info on the manager:

You're probably not getting the error messages that this article discusses but the Norton software hooks itself into your browsers in the form of an address bar and background task. It's just doing what you asked it to do but with vigor!

Glad you found the root of the problem. Again, I am sorry for giving you the incorrect process name.

Hey worked out great. Found out my mother in law had been getting the same thing. And was going to get me to look at it. The Norton 360 has ccsvchst.exe which is the culprit.

Aha!

I never did like Norton Utilities even back in the DOS days. Windows hooks make it really insidious!
