PC effectively dies with Trusted Installer taking
100% of CPU.
It doesn't appear to do anything useful, only
act like a virus.
What's it doing?
How do I get rid of it?

Trusted installer installs, of course, like updates and stuff. It is
scheduled to act periodically in the background. Since you are so hysterical
at 100% CPU usage and apt to get rid of stuff you don't even know what it
does, you have probably already rendered your system unusable with a cascade
of unintended consequences due to your own ignorant acts, so who knows why
your trusted installer can no longer be trusted.

Start with the event viewer and read what is occurring at the times your
mal-trusted installer is doing its thing.

But written by dipsticks, it takes 100% CPU, so the
PC goes into rigor mortis mode, which is definately
not acting periodically in the background.
More like it is acting in the foreground. Surely
any competent programmer, and MS don't seem
to have any, would program in around 30% CPU
max.

hahaha...now we're getting somewhere...so you think you're a
"programmer" right...LOL!

Then it isn't 100% CPU that has you upset, but your machine is freezing up.
I often get 100% usage and my PC is still perfectly responsive because of
task priority. This has nothing to do with CPU percentage. Anyway, your
machine is messed up, and given the tone and acumen of your post and
unreasonable need to place blame elsewhere rather than find a solution, is
probably due to your own actions.

Have you ever tried right clicking on my computer, and opening it, then click
on you hard drive then properties, and do a disk clean up, might help, in
getting what not needed old cookies and temp files that's not needed anymore.

Only problem is I'm trying to get some work done, with 100% CPU and
a PC with rigor mortis, Excel macros also have rigor mortis, since
Excel macros also demand 100% CPU.
MS just don't seem to have any competent programmers, they
can't even make Excel a 64 bit program.
MS seem totally incompetent in most areas.
Their WGA server going down and crippling legitimate
machines is just another example.
Surely for a critical server you have a backup server.

Funny, I never have those problems. And AGAIN, check your facts about the
server crash. Don't you think that IF the server had been doing that it
would have garnered more press, especially from the smacktards? Funny that
the ONLY mention of a problem says August of 2007. Perhaps you should wait
until you know what you are talking about before posting.

If you haven't immediately installed any programs, you can kill it.
Supposedly, Trusted Installer has to do with Add/Remove
and optional components. It's Service name is "Windows Modules Installer".
However, when you check the dependencies for that Service,
none are listed.

Go into Admin Tools>Services and find "Windows Modules Installer".
Be sure it is set to "Manual". Stop it if it is causing problems.

You could also right-click on the process name -> set priority -> below normal
