Hi
Every few days, just after booting into Vista, my processor usage goes 100%. When I look in the task manager, a process called "TrustedInstaller.exe" is eating all of my CPU. It continues for about a minute or two, then goes away. It only happens every few days at startup, but its very annoying. Is this normal? What is the process trying to do?
At first I thought that it's some kind of malware-- "trusted" installer. but then i saw that there's an account called "TrustedInstaller" which has all the administrative privileges. (I saw that while changing permissions for a file.) So I thought that that permission set is probably used by setups when installing programs??? (sorry if that was silly lol)
thanks for any help.
