cvtres.exe is causing me grief, too.
Vista Home Premium, SP1; Comodo 3.0.25.378.
I have no idea what is starting cvtres.exe, it seems to appear on its own. Example: I was browsing the Web (Firefox 3.0RC2), while recording a VHS tape to disk (Honestech VHS to DVD,) with my email program (Thunderbird) and WordPerfect open.
Because I've had problems with cvtres.exe for three days or so now, I have the Task Manager open to show the CPU use. Suddenly, the computer cooling fan started running faster, and the CPU use jumped from 40-50% to 100.
I closed TWO instances of cvtres.exe, and CPU use dropped back to 40-50%.
I thought that I had told Comodo to ignore cvtres.exe, but it is quite possible that I did not do so properly, as I'm not at all certain how to do that.
Thus, more detailed instructions on how to fix this problem would be appreciated, along with any hints as to what might be calling cvtres.exe. (As far as I can tell, none of the open applications use the .exe, as turning cvtres.exe off in the Task Manager has no effect on those applications.)
