VB6 Application spikes CPU if idle

[hmnpa]

Hi All

I have a VB6 application that uses 1-2% CPU when running. As soon as the user locks his machine or leaves the app running and wanders off for some time, the CPU usage becomes 20-25% and remains at that level. The user is running the app on a Terminal Server.

Please let me know if someone has an idea of what could be happening.

Thanks a lot

are you 100% sure that its the VB6 app thats causing it? I think it will be something else

Hi Chris

It is the VB6 app, that is observable consistently.

Thanks
