Hi.
I use XP Pro w/SP2.
I remember reading this somewhere but can't find it.
When I open the Task Manager the highlighted process is pulsing.
If memory serves me correctly this has something to do with Auto Update.
I turned it off but the pulsing continues.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

There's a term and a half!
What is this pulsing, please?

Neil,
Pulsing as in throbbing as in a slow flash.
Hope that helps.

Um, okay, not quite sure how to advise on this one.
Is it only on certain processes or all of them?
