Marcos,
Thanks for looking into this.
Good idea but no. Back to silly CPU load.
Oh and I forgot to mention that Outlook cannot be closed (with the ESET add-in ticked on). Well, the application closes, but I have to kill the Outlook.exe process.manually.
As mentioned in the other thread, for some reason, not always repeatable, which is annoying: If I leave Outlook alone (with the ESS9 add-in enabled of course) for a while by letting it run in the background, the activity somewhat abates and I can then close Outlook normally. So maybe there is a finite operation that the ESET add-in performs, get stuck somehow and at times completes at other time does not...
Sure my PC is old, hence likely to send the fan spinning a bit when it gets pushed too hard, but we are talking about emails here, not high FPS computer gaming. And it definitely worked fine not so long ago. Again, I had only recently realised that ESS9 was ready for download/update, and things were fine prior to that.
