 FYI,

   

After installing Akamai Netsession in order to download PSoC Creator I noticed (several days later) that the Windows Vista 'NT Kernel & Systems' task was running continuously at 20% to 30% of cpu.  I didn't see an Akamai task running, but I merely uninstalled it because it was the only thing I'd installed recently. 

   

I'm just passing this along in case others are having the same problem.

   

Regards
