I've been having trouble with XoloX over the past few days and I believe it all comes down to an incompatibility with ZoneAlarm.
Each time I ran XoloX with ZoneAlarm on first, the resources woulw plummet and the only way out was to [Ctrl]+[Alt]+[Del] my backside out of there. If you run XoloX withOUT ZoneAlarm, there should be no problem. But then there's a high likelyhood you'll get hacked, which there is right now to me. Oh dear. I'm off to see if the same works with other firewalls, brb.
