<p>I have been having a problem for the last 2 days when zoning.  I was taking 2-5 minutes to zone.  I checked the Task Manager Processes and noticed that there were 2 items titled StationLauncher.exe*32 running.  They were each using 42% of the CPU.  I ended both processes and tried zoning again.  It took less than 15 seconds to zone from that point on.  The problem repeats when I exit the game and relaunch from the Station Launcher.  Any Idea how to solve this problem without manually ending the processes each time I log in.</p><p>------------------System Information------------------Time of this report: 9/12/2009, 19:16:48       Machine name: MICHAEL-PC   Operating System: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit (6.1, Build 7100) (7100.winmain_win7rc.090421-1700)           Language: English (Regional Setting: English)System Manufacturer: HP-Pavilion       System Model: RK569AA-ABA m7750n               BIOS: Phoenix - AwardBIOS v6.00PG          Processor: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5000+ (2 CPUs), ~2.6GHz             Memory: 4096MB RAMAvailable OS Memory: 4094MB RAM          Page File: 3662MB used, 4524MB available        Windows Dir: C:Windows    DirectX Version: DirectX 11DX Setup Parameters: Not found   User DPI Setting: Using System DPI System DPI Setting: 96 DPI (100 percent)    DWM DPI Scaling: Disabled     DxDiag Version: 6.01.7100.0000 64bit Unicode</p><p>---------------Display Devices---------------          Card name: ATI Radeon HD 3800 Series       Manufacturer: ATI Technologies Inc.          Chip type: ATI display adapter (0x9501)           DAC type: Internal DAC(400MHz)         Device Key: EnumPCIVEN_1002&DEV_9501&SUBSYS_E620174B&REV_00     Display Memory: 2298 MB   Dedicated Memory: 507 MB      Shared Memory: 1791 MB       Current Mode: 1600 x 900 (32 bit) (60Hz)</p>

<p>Greetings,</p><p>That's certainly unusual and the station launcher should not be doing that while running in the background.  Do you have any kind of antivirus/security running in the background that could be conflicting with the game?  It almost sounds like a security program is focusing on the station launcher process as a potentially malicious program.  If you are running that sort of software then you might want to try disabling it temporarily to see if that has an effect.</p>
