    I have a strange problem with my computer (using win XP). Everytime I start up my computer it seems to go very slow. When I go to the task manager CPU usage is around 100% right when I start up the computer, without opening any programs. I looked at the processes list and see that a program called HOST32.exe was the only one using the CPU. When I end the host32.exe process the CPU usage falls back down to between 0-10%. Any idea what this host32.exe program is and why it is putting such a load on the CPU?
