CPU Time

I have a SQL server 2000 standard version installed on a window 2000 server.
It has been working well. Recently, SQL server process sqlservr.exe consume
50%-99% of the CPU time even I didn't issue any SQL server related
operation. There is not any backup or maintain job was set up in the server.
The memory usage doesn't change. I once waited for more than one hour to
complete the process, however it didn't.
Did anyone know what's happened? My computer become really slow and hardly
do anything.
Thanks
Ying
Hi
Is SQL Server 2000 Service Pack 3 or 4 applied. If not, it sounds like the
Slammer Virus that came out 3 years ago.
