      This is getting more and more desperate for me, i havent installed any packet called "BandwidthD" but some packet called BandwidthD is taking up 100% of my CPU, 100% of the time. This is causing horrible, HORRIBLE jitter and ping times. Pleas follow this link to my other thread, im suposed to have this network up in 2 days and ive been working on it none stop for almost three. Trying command after command to try and disable this one god damn packet. http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,59875.0.html

        Have you tried the kill command to just end the process?

        I have no idea what else that might impact but if it is gone at least the system will be more responsive as you troubleshoot it.

            Man page: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=kill&sektion=1

            Start with just kill and your process (from your other post) id:  kill 5018

            Add options if that doesn't work, -9 or -15

            kill -9 5018  or kill -15 5018
