MJ uses 50% CPU for no reason (that i know of)

Post by cquilliam »

Have a bit of a problem. I have my MJ plugged into my girlfriend's laptop that's plugged into my router by wired connection. Her laptop has Windows 7 32bit installed.

When first starting MJ, it works fine, can make and receive calls no problem. Over an indeterminate time, usually when we haven't used it in a while, and we pick up the phone, we either get no dial tone, or we get a tone, but the phone won't make a call. When you look at the process viewer on the laptop, its showing MagicJack using 50% of the CPU. The only way to get it working again is to kill the process and restart magicjack. This has to be done several times a day, and is getting very frustrating.

The laptop's install is fairly new. There's not much else running on it except Word, Chrome and Digsby.

Any idea on what would cause this? Tried complete uninstall and delete of everything and re-install, no change.
