Re: Spoolsv.exe & CPU Since Update

Thanks, I took a look at the link but it sounds like this is just better
error reporting and does not address the actual problem that started
immediately after the my last MS security update (and, you have to call MS
to get the Hotfix???).

There's no question this problem started with the last update and I've had
to pull out the USB cable to print anything and disconnect the printer from
the LAN so that the LAN doesn't shut down every time I try to print anything
via the network.

Any more ideas?
