I'm having a problem with my EBT wallet that I hope someone can help me with. (or at least point me in the right direction)

My wallet is constantly unresponsive, and says it is not responding. It will pop out of this state occasionally, usually for no more than one or two seconds, and I'll get a bunch of transaction notifications in that window of time. (incoming PoS transactions)

I'm unable to do anything with the wallet, including sending coins or encrypting my wallet, so for the time being my EBT balance is inaccessible to me.

I've tried reinstalling the wallet on two computers, and I don't seem to run into any problems until I import my wallet.dat backup to the EBT folder in AppData. I've tried restoring two separate backups of the wallet.dat, one from a few months ago when I was having no problems, and both files cause the same issue. I know for certain that the older wallet.dat file is not corrupted.

I've looked around for similar issues with other altcoin clients and haven't come up with anything helpful, so if anyone knows anything I'd be very appreciative! And if you can help me get to my coins I'll be happy to send some your way to say thanks.

Same thing happened to me a while back (maybe) because I had a lot of small transactions (dust). I think a flaw in every wallet for every coin is if you have a large number of transactions, the wallet crawls and becomes unresponsive. This has happened to me repeatedly with different coins and p2p mining.

What I had to ultimately do with EBT (and some other coins) is just wait it out and keep sending transactions to a different wallet to consolidate. In the case of POS coins though, I lost a lot of stake because the coin age renewed.

I don't know if you're having the exact same problem I had, but if you have 17K+ transactions I'm guessing it's similar.

I don't think this is so much an EBT issue as just a flaw in all wallets.
How many transactions do you have? It sounds like your computer is working really hard to find transactions to stake and may have a miner open for each stake.

Also, what kind of system are you running (Windows 2000, Windows NT, etc)?

In short, this really isn't enough information. You might have a virus. It's hard to tell what is wrong from your description. I have EBT running on several different computers and they are all doing fine.

Both machines I've installed it on in the last couple days are running fresh Windows 8 installs, no viruses. I've got 17,929 transactions, and 1,974,188 EBT in the wallet. If that's causing the problem (the computer working overtime to find transactions, like you mentioned) what--if anything--can I do to get around it?

EDIT: For a little more information, the primary computer I'm having trouble with is a quad-core Windows 8 machine with 6GB of RAM and an SSD. So the computer's hardware resources should be up to par for this. Given that this is a clean Windows install on a decent computer, I'm not sure what other variables might come into play.
