				      | 
			 
			
				
  | 
			 
			
				So basically when I run utorrent, my comp's cpu usage soars to 100 % 
 
and utorrent is hogging my system's resources.  
 
I turn off utorrent and everything goes back to normal with system idle around 90-95 and cup usage at 5-8 %  
 
 
What's going on???
 
 
By the way
 
 
I'm running a laptop with a pentium M 1.7, 512 megs ram and windows xp service pack 2 |

				Yeah, I thought it might be that so I throttled my upload to a max of 20 kb/s
 
 
No good.  
 
 
As soon as the program is launched, even with no uploads/downloads running, my cpu usage goes to 100%.  
 
 
I think I'm just gonna have to delete the program, run all of my security software, and then re-install utorrent. |

I uninstalled it.  
 
 
Ran antivirus and antispyware.  Found some spyware and cleaned it out.  
 
Reinstalled it.  Computer is running at around 5%now with utorrent on so I'm happy. |
