Beware: Adobe 9 ifilter can use up CPUs even when not filtering
I have had this reported from more than a few customers than even when their indexing is complete the mssdmn.exe process which is where the iflters process your files will continue to use up CPUs. I suspect this is a poor attempt by Adobe to keep their libraries and resources loaded by using a timer or sleep loop for faster startup, but it obviously is not working well.
Note: this behaviour was NOT reported for the Adobe 8 reader ifilter.
Solution: Install the Foxit or PDFLIB.com ifilter instead, it will cost you a little money (usually less than 1k) but your problem will be solved.
Cheers.
