process was 40 meg in size -- biggest process when I checked because my machine was swapping

Have to kill process to get K!TV running.

It launches cmd.exe and ipconfig.exe every 2 seconds and eats up all the CPU indirectly.

I have Intel PROSet/Wireless 3945ABG, and use the supplied software for my wireless (not the XP built-in).

I did not have it before I started having problems...

This proc helps maintain the Wifi connection on your computer. When you disable it you loose the ablility to see Wifi networks. If you are using Wifi don't turn it off. If you do turn it off you will need to restart your computer to turn it back on.

kommt vom WLAN, scheint keine funktionsrelvanten Funktionen zu beinhalten
   

I have an Intel PROWireless installed on my pc

After frequent hibernations and startups without a restart, the S24EvMon.exe process could consume a lot of memory. Sometimes the process peaks almost 600Mb even with the Wifi hardware switch OFF. Probably necessary, but a little annoying process

C:\Program Files\Intel\Wireless\Bin\S24EvMon.exe = Wireless Management Service for Intel(R) PROSet/Wireless
   

This might be a benign process, but it's definitely a RAM hog! Was occupying over 24M last I checked.

Mostly comes in laptops with intel network card. This is wireless(wi-fi)/bluetooth connection program for network, don't mix-up with bluetooth file-sharing. You can safely disable it if you dont have wireless Network connection.

Is an INTEL file.
