I am having a similiar problem that started today. I am
have a 2.4Ghz Pentium IV with 100GB HD and 512MB RAM.
The computer seems to run fine for a while, then it gets
real slow, then it is fine again. It continues the
cycle. The only thing I have really seen is that when it
gets slow the Page File Usage skyrockets to like 1.3 GB
and the memory usage of CIDAEMON goes way up as well. If
anyone has any suggestions on this I would be gratefull.
