The CPU usage and memory usage did drop after a reboot, but any images on the site are still slow to load. When loading the archives page <http://tr.wou.edu/archives>, everything slows while the image spacers etc load. Could F-Secure's Real-Time scanning have anything to do with this? Should I move this discussion to their tech support. My experience with them in the past is that they find out it is Listserv tell me to contact Lsoft. I suppose I could leave that info out since this is affected across all sites.

I'm sure I am running the latest hotfix on F-Sec ver8
