I had switched on the auto update. Since then, update.exe starts up each an every time and hogs up approx. 50% of the CPU. When I examine the performance, the CPU is at the max amount. I have tried to re-set the settings so that it does not check for updates. That has not had any effect. Could someone please let me know how I can switch this bugger off? How do I cancel the incoming connection? Cheers,
