Spoolsv.exe Taking Over

I have a Dell Optiplex, with Windows XPPro SP2. The Print Spooler is taking over the system, 99% processor. I stop the spooler, processor returns to normal, however, no printer are available until I restart the spooler.

I have cleaned the c:\windows\system32\spoolsv.exe file, and cleaned the \spooler directory.

Ran several virus cleaners, cleaned files, etc..

All to no avail. Anyone have a clue or suggeston?
