And other programs that steal CPU....!

Seriously, I use AutoCAD all the time and frequently it will do some background processing that totally wipes out WCG - even when it is only open somewhere in the background.

I only really noticed it because of that strange unresponsiveness that I remember from the bad old days of SETI.

So, anyone else want to warn of impolite software? Virus scanners are notoriously impolite, and there have been reported issues with Norton (no surprise, Norton shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a computer unless you want to destroy it utterly).
