I'm new to the forum, though it isn't the first time I've used Flyakite. I don't know where exactly to post this but...
It seems to me that there are conflicts with Flyakite and McAfee. Every ten, twenty seconds, my CPU usage goes from 3-4% up to 72-80%. I don't know why it would be acting like that.
If anyone has an answer, I'd be more than happy.
I don't think Flyakite has anything to do with McAfee due to that Flyakite only modifies the system files for design, not performance. I wouldn't know anything about the conflict because I don't use either of the applications.

Oh well, thanks for answering. Anyways, the problem has seemingly disappeared...for now.
I use both McAfee Internet Security 06 and Flyakite 3.5 and I have not noticed any probs.
What version of firewall are u using is this Mcafee I have noticed mine gets a bit strange when the intrusion logs get large.
I'm using McAfee 7, not six. The problem has seemingly disappeared, and other than the few first moments (maybe thirty or forty minutes) the problem has gone away. So far no problems.
It may not have been with McAfee, but I noticed that the MCshield.exe process was running at about 73%. There were no updates downloaded. It has since gone away.
That's normal for McAfee to do that when you first log in.
MCShield.exe runs an integrity check of itself and vital system files when it first loads.
Then it scans all processes currently loaded into active memory.
Depending on how many processes and how old your PC is, it can take anywhere from a few seconds, to a few minutes to get through these checks.
I recently purchased a dual core Pentium D 820 system with 2GB of ram and it still takes a good minute or two for McAfee to go through it's startup routine.
