I've noticed that when I play tfc or dod the game is using a lot of CPU, most of the time near 100%. My ping skyrockets to about 2000. Any idea how i can make this stop??

I have no idea what could be causing this, but maybe if you posted your cpu, ram, os specs someone else can help you. Also are you on dial up or on cable?

Ya, what is the rest of your system, cpu and vid card? Ill look tonight to see what mine says even though Im using win2k it should be somewhat close.

Doh!! should of looked at the link... I agree with Merf........ Spyware!

Not sure about the half-life prob.....but look at the line below it...GMT = stupid Gator spyware bullsh*t. Take a look at the I/O reads and mem usage, pretty high man. I also see another process that I think is spyware....CMESys.exe. You should get rid of these little buggers post haste.

This might sound stupid, but what exactly is spyware? I know its a bad thing, but I dont know what it is and what it does or how you get it.

As for the problem, maybe if you close a lot of those(not explorer) and it might make your connection better.

ok, that isass.exe cause havok on mine and would kill my connection. Stop that process and then see if that helps. Did you try the spyware link I gave ya?

i tried stopping the isass.exe but i says it is critical to operating the system. I ran the spyware, it found some viruses and i deleted them and i still have problems. I tried unistalling half life and then installing it again but that didnt help.
