Is your AVG set to automatically do a daily scan Tom ?
Also, click the CPU column name and the list will sort highest to lowest and vice versa

Can you try something?
click start>run and type msconfig and hit enter
click on the startup tab and post screenshots of the list of programs.
You have a few unecessary programs loading, can you do the above and we'll stop them loading. Do you need the tom tom software running? Is macafee your only firewall? If i recall you use AOL? |

given that all the programs we can see aren't causing the problem, does it matter?

Probably not but it wouldn't hurt would it? Besides there could be a conflict with one of these, i had a problem once with graphics software and norton. |

It could hurt, would rather see what is causing the problem first... I think I've had more problems with Norton on its own than conflicting with other programs  |

Hmm, sounds familiar. http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=14893.0This file was definitely the problem though. Can't remember how I fixed it, I think I found a solution online by Googling it. |

When did you last update Firefox, and what add-ons are you using?

Couple of things to try: Firstly IE7 is a perfectly good alternate for firefox. If you prefer firefox though then create a new profile, this has the effect of running it as new or clean. It will at least pinpoint the problem to an addon or plugin and is pretty straighforward. Found a link rather than going through it myself: http://labnol.blogspot.com/2007/09/firefox-runs-slow-speed-memory-fast.html |

I had this problem before I used firefox. I changed to ff a couple of weeks ago to try and cure it.
