server disconnects

I also get the 'disconnected' message, using Waterfox.
Chrome does have issues at present that make it difficult for the game to work well, but this issue is not related.

Well, I thought it might be chrome so I used MSN edge. Exact same issue. The game is unusable as every time I click on anything, the system locks and a few moments later I get the disconnected msg. After about 30 seconds it comes back. I have noticed, however, that whatever browser I am using, it is using up any where between 25% to 85% of my cpu. This has never been an issue until very recently, within the last week.
I also thought it could be my pc, but everything worked fine other than the loading issue last week. In my search, I saw a post from several years back about this very issue with tiberium alliance.
Some one please help
