I always have 3-5 dumprep.exe's running, and even though they only use about 15% of my CPU each, when combined with Firefox, my total CPU usage is in the high 80s/90s, and it's slowing down my system. Any way I can disable dumprep.exe?

Honestly, I don't know why they call you a major pain :)

Probably because I march to a different drum beat than everyone else. Maybe I should also have an alias like Forrest Grump.

Merry Christmas to you and yours.
