I noticed that while watching a streaming movie, that every half hour, the
movie
stutters, and the audio gets out of synch with the video.

This happens at 1:00, 1:30, 2:00, etc... on every half hour.

This seems to be some program, is running in the background every
half hour, and uses enough system resources to cause the video to stutter.

I do have virus updates and some backup routines, but nothing that I would
have
requested to run every half hour.

Is there some tool, or utility, I can use to try to find out what is running
at those times? Something like a log of all system events?

Thanks for any assistance,
Al Campagna

Buffer? ...or ads time from the source?

Sandy,
Well, the movie only took a few minutes to fully buffer, so I think it's
not that.
But, I was on a site I hadn't used before, and the ad idea may be the
reason.
I do have AdBlock running (I did not see any ads pop up), so... perhaps
it
was Adblock that used up the resources.
I'll check that out further...

No, I'm running AVG, which should update only once a day.
