This is the best and the best solution for the problem .Some say ibmmessages.exe
and some say indexing services .I am not saying that they are wrong .But this approach
will let you find the root cause of the problem rather that guess work. Just find
out which process is faulting most currently and if its not critical start killing
it.Repeat the same for others .In my case it was a process called TSVNCache.exe
and another one procexp.exe .The probs caused by the first were a major concern
.Thanks for this help and i would give this approach a 10 of 10 . A very decent approch
to solve the problem . Bingo
