Unknown HDD activity

Recently, my computer has been engaging in ferocious hard drive activity completely non-stop starting after I leave the computer idle for only a mere 20-30 seconds. As soon as I move the mouse it stops. What could be doing this? The only thing I can possibly think of is last week I enabled indexing in Windows search, so maybe it's doing that while it's idle? But it's been doing this for days, I'm sure it would be done with that by now.

I can't even check what's going on since it stops when I move the mouse. Any ideas?

Yes it is indexing this happened to me, and it drove me NUTS!!!!

Disable it.

It doesn?t improve the search functionality that much IMO.

Start >control panel > Add/Remove (windows components) > and Untick and uninstall that badboy ASAP!!!!
