System was using 100% CPU

found the posts from back in april about PC Chillin handing out a bad update

looks like they did it again

LPT$VPN.925 seems to be the bad file. anyways deleted it and things are okay now

just thought I would let you guys and anyone one else that just spent the last 2 hours trying to track down the problem know.

Very interesting. The best way to find out what process it slowing down you computer is to do Ctrl + Alt + Delete and look in the Processes tab.
