![]() SysInternals ProcMon says it's constantly going over totally innocuous files over and over again. MSMPENG.EXE - Some say this is Windows Defender, others say it's the OneCare AntiVirus.All of them, every machine and every issue: Now, in the last month, on EVERY Vista Machine I have, from a slow AMD K5 my wife runs, to a Toshiba m200 Tablet, an IBM T60, and a home-built monster, has suffered with these issues. I also got OneCare for the whole family, having had nice experiences as a Beta Tester. My wife, my mom, and myself all run Vista. ![]() Early Betas hurt me, and an RC1 or two destroyed a machine or two, but after release (RTM) including installation and day to day use, my experience has been nice. I've had a pretty decent Vista experience, recognizing that I'm an Early Adopter. When I see things like this, I think "If I worked for Microsoft, fixing this problem could be a HUGE opportunity." This isn't a small problem, if Google has anything to say about it, but rather something is really sick somewhere. Try Googling for any subset of these words "MSMPENG.EXE, TrustedInstaller.exe and SLSVC.EXE at 100% CPU on Vista Machines" and you'll discover a mass of pained and screaming Vista users, yearning for a HotFix. (and sometimes find myself - that's always disheartening when you Google for a problem, find yourself, then at that moment realize that not only have you had this problem before, but you're still screwed.)Īnd find a huge number of folks "suffering" on blogs, on Usenet, in Forums with some similar problem, and nary a Microsoft blogger or MVP in sight. However, when I have a problem, and I Google and Google. Specifically the developers and folks in the developer division (devdiv) do a great job of letting us know what's up, especially when things are wrong. I give Microsoft a lot of credit for the work all their bloggers do to increase the transparency of their business. I've upgraded and I've not seen this issue again. UPDATE: Looks like this bug has been fixed in Vista Service Pack 1 (SP1). Please read my personal story about life as a diabetic and donate today.
