Thumbs down I need help with my CPU

I play this game called Warrock.. some of you may know it? But anyway, On warrock my ping is very hight. About 3 days ago it was about 20-80 (Good ping) but now it seems to of shot up? I know that this is because of my CPU Usage because now when I start playing Warrock the CPU usage go right up to 100% - 80%. When I don't play warrock the usage goes right back down to 10% - 30%. When I am playing the only program I have running is warrock and sometimes Teamspeak (In-Game chat).

Is there any way I can get my CPU Usage down when I play warrock? Should I system restore back to when it did work...?

If this is not clear please tell me.. I was up late last night and am very tired. And if you need any more info on my computer just ask. Thanks!

Lower the resolution/texture detail.

Make sure you have the most up to date graphics drivers for your card and see if there are any patches for that game.

A defrag/malware check couldn't hurt either

Yep. War rock when it was in beta gave me high pings some times, but lowering detail sorted it. (dont like the full release now )

Oh has your internet slowed down at all?

Also it could be you have malware.

Malicious software, basically, do a check for spyware/viruses etc.
