System Idle Process is roughly equivalent to the CPU twiddling its thumbs
while waiting for something to do. In other words, 95% System Idle Process
indicates 5% CPU usage. This is normal. Don't worry about it.

the CPU usage most
of process "system idle process"
is
.
While we're on CPU cycles - according to my Task
manager, winlogon.exe uses from 2 to 30+% for a couple of
minutes at a time. I've done a lot of searching and
don't think it's the virus-caused Winlogin.exe - I ran a
complete NAV scan with no virus result, ran a SPYbot scan
with no results, ran an Adware scan with only an Alexa
and Comet Cursors results - deleted these and am still
getting the winlogon.exe cycle overuse. Plus, what shows
in my Task manager is "winlogon.exe" not WinLogin.exe.
I've got XP Home and NAV. ANy ideas?
