Hi All

I run a dual boot (win/rh7.3) m/c. Celeron 900 MHz with 128 MB RAM on
a 40 GB HDD. Usual desktop is KDE.
I face a problem which is randomly occurring and ocassional in nature.
Whenever I browse using Konqueror , sometimes the HDD will start
thrashing and none of the key strokes or Mouse clicks will rgister, or
rather it will be more than a minute before it will register in the
terminal or on the KDE windows.

"Top" command shows 86 to 89 % CPU used by kdeinit and RAM fully used
with only 2 MB free (this RAM usage is usual even in normal
circumstances).

In this even when I want to shut down,  just for the mouse click to
register it took about 90 seconds.
Why does it happen ? Any leads ?
Since I was in Linux, I was not worrying about my stand alone HomePC
being hacked. But is that also a possibility?

Pl help.

N S Srikanth
