I have disocvered something that is contiuing to alarm me.

[Guest]

I have been monitoring system processes for the last hour or maybe two hours.
And I notice a trend that is telling me that my computer is being put to
heavy use in system idle processes, and i dont even have any cpu intensdive
applications running. Is there a way for me to kill all system idle
processes? Is there a way for me to look and see what is in the idle process
list and delete the ones that look fishy? If so how do I go about doing this?
I mean the CPU load is jumping to 91%-95% on system idle processes and it
shouldnt be. Right now Im runnning a virus scan to see if it picks up
anything. Im hoping it doesnt but is this noimal or not? And if not and I
cant do the above things I am asking is possible am I going to have to
reformat? And what is considered normal cpu load on system idle proccesses?
Thanks again and patiently awaiting your answer. -Master Jedi

Hmmm..
"System Idle" is what it implies...
The % of the time your system is idle.
The higher that number - the less your CPU is being used for actual
processes.
