Was actually using wp-o-matic plugin on an word press blog and suddenly yesterday it started eating the server resources heavily.

Was eating around 130% of the servers CPU and instantly the host called me asking to do something with it imediately or the server might crash

Lol I immediately took a backup of my database and asked the host to suspend the site immediately. After that all was fine and the host also refunded my 100% charges. Thanks to him for that!!

BTW did any one ever have a issue like this?? Till now never understood the cause of that. But sure that there wasnat any virus coa the host scans the harddisk regularly

Geee....I think I've never been that far. If I can still recall, it was giving some error message after I install so I just remove the whole thing. Are you sure it is caused by the wp-o-matic plugin? Anyway, I didn't bother to go into details on it.

Yes I asked the host to track the url which is eating the server resource. Thats the way how I was able to knoe that it was wpomatic which was behaving crazy

Hers the screenshot what the host sent me.

By the way I see it, it looks like it's the plugin that is causing all the problem. Did you managed to contact the person that made the plugin and highlight the problem?
