EZBlocker CPU usage after boot when Spotify is not yet used #256

Hi, I noticed tha following:

When Spotify is enabled on boot and EZBlocker starts with it and Spotify is not yet used after the current boot, then EZBlocker eats CPU 3-4% constantly. I tried it in multiple PC, happens the same.

But after Spotify starts (even 1 sec is play enogh), then EZBblocker CPU usage disappears to normal level (~0,2%).

I think after startup EZBlocker may stuck somehow after boot when Spotify is not used or want to block Spotify very badly, that is why it tries to do something (3-4% CPU), but there is no play in Spotify at all, so it seems unnecessary that EZBlocker eats CPU for nothing.

I hope it can be fixed. Thanks

I have the same issue but instead of 4% usage, it's like 20%.

In EZBlocker Window there is a option for Start EZBlocker on Startup uncheck that and restart
