Help htcUPCTloader.exe high CPU usage

I'm having issues with HTC Sync 3.0.5517 (htcUPCTloader.exe). When it's running (either at startup or manually) it uses 25% CPU constantly. If I start it manually and click Check Update, it jumps to 50% and still does nothing.
I'm running Win7-64 on a Quad core laptop. Frigging maddening
When I go to the HTC Support site and go to Select Phone, the Thunderbolt isn't even listed.
I tried here HTC - Support but found it here HTC Mobile Phone Support - HTC ThunderBolt? - Help

What's the most recent version? I have 3.0.5517 but the HTC site shows 5511
