"Svchost.exe" (Generic Host Process for Win32 Services) is an integral part of Windows OS. It cannot be stopped or restarted manually. It manages 32-bit DLLs and other services. At startup, Svchost.exe checks the services portion of the registry to construct a list of services that it needs to load. In normal conditions multiple instances of Svchost.exe run at the same time. Each Svchost.exe session can contain a grouping of services, so that separate services can be run depending on how and where Svchost.exe is started. This allows for better control and debugging.

I have 5 too, but I always have one that is 15+ megs that i end task because it makes installs and stuff hang for some unknown reason and lags my system a bit. When its end tasked everything goes smooth.

I'm still using OS2:glugglug

don't worry everything is ok when you se xdsdwfrer.exe and 5 other random char .exes then you start to worry.... :1orglaugh

:D
