[Dx4win] 99 % CPU Usage

I have looked at the processes running, and they are all zero, except 
DX4WIN.  I ran Spybot and Ad-Aware, and while they are running, DX4WIN 
drops to 30-40%, but back to 99-100% when the other programs stop executing.

If I try running a couple of more Windows, and something that needs CPU 
time, the computer is very slow.

Right now I have MMTTY running, taking about 3%, and 96% is being taken 
by DX4WIN.  No other processes show higher than zero.

DX4WIN must be doing something to hog all the CPU resources,  the 
"System Idle Process" shows zero.  While on my other computer running 
DX4WIN, it is 94-97%.
