My son was complaining about extremely slow performance
of our Dell Dimension 2.4 Ghz desktop. I ran McAfee,
spybot, adaware, and Pest Patrol, and nothing found. I
looked at task manager, and started shutting down
processes, because the CPU was running 100% constantly.
The one that did it was ntlsap.exe, which was located in
the Windows/System32 folder. I could not find any
internet references to this file, and it was not founf on
2 other machines also running XP home. I did not delete
it, but went into config and unchecked run at startup.
When I looked just a little while ago, it was not
running, but was again checked in startup! I went to the
folder and clicked the file to run it, and checking task
manager saw cpu was clocking 100% again, so terminated
the process. Any thoughts on what this is and what it
does? No reference on MS site or in knowledgebase that I
saw. Thanks.
