My CPU is locking up with 100% resource utilisation. Ashserv is the culprit. I have the Network Shield, Standard Shield, and Outlook/Exchgange shield loaded.
Terminating all three, frees the CPU. However, when I restart the Network shield, the “on access scanner” page shows me that Outlook/.Exchange shield is “waiting for a subsystem to start”.
Starting the Standard shield again gives me no real problem until I start the Outllok program (Outlook 2003). Then the system hangs again. If I then “terminate” the Outlook shield (remember that I never actually started it myself) I am left with the problem, even if I exit the Outlook 2003 application. I only regain control of my machine my stopping the Standard Shield. If I restart the Standard shield again, I have no problem until I load Outlook 2003 when the cycle repeats itself.
I have also found that Outlook 2003 running with the Outlook shield (but no Standard Shield) seems to give no problem even though the warning “waiting for a subsystem to start” appears in the On Access Scanner Program.
Furthermore, If I stop the standard shield, stop outlook, restart outlook and restart the Standard Shield, then I don’t have a problem. ???
Theer’s a lot of info here but as you can gather it is very perplexing. Especially since this problem only started today (and I’m pretty sure 4.5 installed itself a couple of days ago). Any help would be appreciated.
