There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

AH is SUPPOSED to use 100% of the CPU resources, thats why you arent supposed to have anything running in the background.

If you shut everything down thats visibly running on  your desktop, hit ctrl/alt/del and look at your CPU resources, once you quit moving the mouse around your meter should drop down to 0%, and bounce between there and 2%.  Any more than that,  you have processes running in the background eating up CPU time.  That can get you dumped out of AH or cause lockups.  

Thats all.  Carry on.

  Yes, I know. That`s the problem I am working on here. Without much success I might add.
  I see that more than myself and squad are having this problem.

  Is it trustworthy and does the evaluation actualy work or is it just a
"bait to buy"program?

Dunno, I bought it.  I found it to be worth every penny.
