Acronis leaking dllhoste.exe COM Surrogate objects?
Hi,
I am using a trial version of Acronis Home 2012 and I noticed my computer was being drained one morning and the fan was blowing so I looked in the processes and saw something called dllhoste.exe *32 was running. It is also labeled as COM Surrogate in the description field of the processes window. So I killed it and restarted the compuuter and all was well for a while.
But after a while I started noticing these processes were getting created and not deleted. I couldn't figure out what was causing it so I started disabling things.
Finally I diabled two services for Acronis Home 2012 in the processes window. One was the scheduler. I forget what the other was.
My dllhost.exe *32 leak disappeared.
I am concerned about this because I would like to purchase the full version but I don't want to have to deal with this problem.
I never set up any backup tasks for the trial version. I only used it to get back data from my old computer which had a hard drive failure.
Can anyone shed any light on this problem?
I would appreciate any feedback.

Hello Everyone,
Thank you for posting.
We are sorry about the issues that you experienced with our software.
To contact our Support team with a trial version please check the following guide.
Andrew, would you be kind enough letting me know the size of your report so that I can provide you with a custom ftp link. Please include an Acronis system report when contacting our Support team.
Let me know if you have additional questions please.
Thank you.

Thank you. I have since found an Acronis thread which more accurately describes my problem http://forum.acronis.com/forum/35064. Since this happened in August and September and did not seem to have satisfactorily resolved, I feel uncomfortable about the reliability of the software and have since uninstalled it. The image comfehler.jpg included in that thread was what I got on my screen.
The complete report includes 10 incidents when this happened (The above .doc report includes only one). I am still struggling to send this htm file successfully by email, but I can send you a link to see the report which I have tested to work.
As to the Acronis system report, I recall having seen the report reporting such incident, but I do not recall having seen any technical details... although I may be wrong here. Since I have uninstalled the software, I think the reports are gone.

OKay... I can either send you a link or a html file that contains 10 incidents when the crash occurred. The file has a size of 617K.
