- Winlogon.exe Hogging CPU
- Posted by Doc1127 on December 26th, 2005
This process is using 45 to 60% of the CPU. Is there an easy fix to solve
this problem. Running XP Pro with SP2.
Thanks,
Ron

I know what you are talking about.....
I try to delete it but it just keeps putting its self back. I am having a
realy big problem with controlling the .exe's that run on my computer and I
am realy getting mad, I have been looking everywhere but I can't find
anything. So if anyone knows how to "control" windows please reply to this
Thanks,
Ryan Hanvey

Hey doc,
It seems the winlogon.exe is not the real one. There may be a virus on your
computer. Have you tried to end that process in the task manager? If not try
to and tell me what happens.
Hope this helps

Hi Yogi, I have tried to replace this file with another one but the same
thing goes on. I have also run a complete virus scan on the PC with no
luck. As far as shutting the process down Windows won't let me because it
is a critical process.
Thanks for replying,
Ron
