I've had several customers calling me this morning complaining of slow
computers.  I myself was having the issue.  It appears that Google
desktop is trying to index the internet or something stupid.
Uninstalling it seems to have solved the problem.  Anyone else see this
and/or have comments?

It could have possibly been the Trend thing as well.  *shrug*  In another
forum where I brought this up, the subject got changed so I totally missed
the discussion of the Trend angle.

My work called me today with the same issue. 3/4 of the company is
running very slow.
I'm having them look into if this is the issue now or not.

Thanks for the heads up. Google failed massively with their
spyware(desktop) product. Not giving the remote uninstall option for
network engineers and bundling it with everything makes me want to sue
them.

Uninstalling was a good choice...
