cleanmgr.exe hogging CPU

Came into work this morning after a few days off to be told that emails and other main functions have been running at a snails pace.

A quick look at the DC revealed that cleanmgr.exe is running and is taking up 99% CPU.

I am aware of the function of this process but I don't think that it should be running when staff are in the office!

My query is - is it safe to terminate this process? anything else I should be aware of?

Thanks

Problem solved I think, I have rebooted the server.

Still...any information would be handy for future reference.

no luck - back up to 99% CPU again

any ideas?
