Race condition in CoreTemp 1.0 RC2

Windows 7 x64. If I leave 1.0RC2 running long enough, it will fall into some sort of race condition, eating up a consistent 12% of CPU time. I suspect that it's triggered by a suspend and then resume. The tray icon becomes unresponsive to mouse clicks and the only way to terminate it is via task manager.

The details if it helps: Dell XPS 8100 8GB, Win7 x64 with IE9, C: is an Intel X-25M SSD and there are two garden variety SATA hard disks installed as well.

I thought I read someone else reporting the same here. I've been seeing this bug since the first 1.0 beta.

Yes, this problem has been reported.
I haven't been able to reproduce it yet. But this issue is on the todo list before the next version is released.

I'm having the same issue. It doesn't crash all the time after coming out of standby, but it does happen quite often.

I have a Core E8500 with an Asus P5K motherboard. I am also on Win7x64, with 6 gigs of ram.

I've noticed this problem as well on my laptop (finally!)
I'll investigate it further.

I'm seeing this issue aswell (full utialization of one CPU thread)
CPU is a AMD Turion X2 Dual-Core Mobile RM-74 2.20Ghz
OS is Win7 x64 SP1
If you want to test the new version before release just send me a copy, it's easy to reproduce the issue on this laptop :)
