High Usage Maxing-out CPU

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Is it reproducible? No
What version of the product are you using? Ver 2.3.0 X64
On what operating system (XP,Vista,7,32/64bit)? Windows 7 64-bit 
What is the language of your operating system/keyboard language? English

Please provide any additional information below.

This has happened 5-6 times that I have noticed in the last six months. 7Plus 
will begin to completely consume one CPU on my 8 processor Intel i7-950. The 
icon becomes unresponsive. I am forced to kill it with the Task Manager and 
restart it. It appears to come up, then, correctly. I am a Software Engineer by 
trade and would be happy to work with you getting whatever other information 
would help. I really like the product, but this gets to be a bit of a nusance. 
Are there debug/log features that I can turn on that would leave you some trace 
of this when it next happens.

I have seen this issue a few times myself but I haven't been able to track it 
down yet. If it was easier to reproduce it could maybe be found by disabling 
features until it no longer occurs. There is debug output generated by 7plus, 
but I'm not sure if it will help. I might add debug output to all possible 
loops and events and see if it can be found. To enable debugging, download 
DebugView and put it in 7plus\DebugView. Then set DebugEnabled=1 in 
%appdata%\7plus\settings.ini and start 7plus.
Please let me know if you find anything suspicious.

Thanks for your help,
Chris
