Solved: After Xobni, Outlook CPU usage increases
I am using Win XP, Sp2, Outlook 07 with no plugins. I made the mistake of installing Xobni to see how it worked, did not like it, uninstalled it, and now Outlook causes my CPU usage to continually cycle between 0 and 45%. I went back to Outlook 2000 to see if that would help-it did not, so I then went back to Outlook 07. It does not occur with Outlook Express-only Outlook. I can not find any sign of Xobni on my computer. What can I do to stop this continual CPU usage occurring for no reason. I am not checking e-mail automatically or doing anything else that would this.

Hi pattom12

Did you look in the Add-ins section in Outlook 2007 to see if a Xobni Add-in appears?

Thanks-I did not know where to look for all of the add-ins. I had a spam filter turned on inadvertently. Once I turned it off, my problem went away.

Thanks a million

Which filter was it?

Spambayes is supposed to be pretty accurate and fast, but I haven't been forced to use outlook in two years, eg the outlook 2003 era. but the real slow down is probably outlook's addin support api.

You might like spambayes. It becomes more accurate over time. But beware, any spam filter can still classify a legitimate email as spam. So always check that junk folder before deleting it .
