Thanks. Can you point me to an article referencing your response in #4, please.

thrash the CPUs on any NT Based PC. 16 bit apps often continually poll the
keyboard for activity, which is fin on a single user computer, but on a
multi-user computer this extra CPU usage can be disasterous.
These CPU/process mgmt apps work in one of the following ways:
1. Clamp the application to a certain % of CPU time
2. Lower the priority of the app
3. Alter the CPU affinity of the app, to have it run on a certain CPU
4. Divide up the available CPU time between the number of logged-on
sessions, so one user can't use more than their share of CPU.
Numbers 1, 2 and 4 are very effective, and number 3 is useful in certain
situations.

Thank you for your suggestion. If I can not find another solution: GPE, etc.
I will use your suggestion. Thanks
PS do you know of a reason why users "ntvdm" cpu usage would go way up (in
general). I can't find any commonality in a cause.

No, but I know of other options, i.e. disabling flash and Windows Media
Player, which use lots of CPU time and bandwidth, and/or using a CPU
management program like Threadmaster, Armtech, Appsense or Relevos.

I am running approx 25-30 users on each of 3 win2k3 dedicated terminal
servers. The problem is that when users start to open more than 2 instances
of IE v6 at their thin client, the CPU processor usage goes way up!
Does anyone know how to limit the number of IE instances a user can open???
