unnecessary process for creative mediasource, looks for files constantly which can be added manually and uses a ridiculous amount of cpu/memory

Media Sniffer program from Creative. Came with my MP3 player. it constantly monitors folders designed by the user for new media files. does not hog resources as far as i know. overall, a trusted process that i allow to run in the background.

As it says on the below link its a "Sound Sniffer", monitors the drive for new media files then automatically adds them to the media library.

It is a part of Creative MediaSource which monitors directories for media files. Probably hogs CPU & memory.
