http:\\donkeysonparade.0catch.com\nukelog.txt

a ping of the site yields 206.63.57.10

IS there a way to "catch" the service that causes this pop up and disable it?

I have a single csrss.exe file but recently it has been draining 58%+ CPU output, putting my CPU usage to 100% and slowing most things to a crawl. It wasn't always like this and even know it comes and goes but it usually behaves this way.
