Java.exe *32 extensively using CPU

Hmm, running out of ideas..

Try booting your PC, and not opening any Browser at all, and see if Java decides to pop-up on it's own.

thanks for the suggestions, but ive already tried that :S

Are you running the Latest version of Java?

yes, i checked again today, its latest

I was just reading this post because I am having the exact same issue. My Java applications will sometimes slam my CPU's to 100% and eventually overheat them. I tried re-installing java as 64-bit by uninstalling 32-bit, and reinstalling the 64-bit. However in my services it still lists the service as javaw.exe *32

I'm wondering if anyone else has had this issue, and has figured out what the problem is.

Hi, im having issues with Java or something.

when i first turn on my shstem. eveyrthing works fine, no problems. cpu usage is normal and all. after starting some other applications, when i close them, my CPU usage stays at 100% always. if i have a photoshop running 50%, Java.exe *32 will be running the other 50%.

i am running 7 64bit. it is alwasy the same application using cpu. its annoying cause the heat causes fan to run max.

help please!
thanks

Try Using JavaRa. Use it to wipe every trace of java from the PC then reinstall... And Hope it Works

I tried that, but it still doesn't work... any other ideas?

Well... New forumer and I'm necroposting... Great.
Anyways, I solved the java.exe*32 issue by opening task manager, right clicking the process and clicking "End Process Tree". It ends the java process and keeps it shut off till you use Java again. Works very effectively.
