I often have one instance of svchost.exe that is associated with
almost 30 Services - and, again often, when this happens, that
instance of svchost uses a very high percentage of my CPU. I have
read where some people think it has something to do with a Windows or
Microsoft Update. Does anyone know anythng about this issue?
Thanks........
