Recently, i was working looking at one of the systems which used to get slower and slower with time after boot. In the task manager, i found below hightlighted process that used to jump up to take 100 % CPU.
I started looking inside add/remove programs and did not find much information there about the third party apps that might run this service/process. So, i started looking into msconfig and i got this:
It gave me clear idea about the service and the registry. I went inside the installed directory and i found a uninstall option.
NOTE:
- The system performance was back to where it was prior to this problem after uninstalling.
- Though, i could uninstall this and fix the performance issue, i found no information related to this
in the Internet Explorer or in Firefox as it seem to have installed as a Search helper Toolbar.
I hope this helps. If you have any information related to this, please feel free to comment and then, i will add this in the article.
