Just as RB stated run those programs. If you don't repair it then run and post the Log File in this thread.

I am running XP Pro +SP2 fully updated.
Norton IS 2004 fully updated.

A Scan from symantec online finds no problems neither does Spybot

Microsoft knowledgebase mentions several instances of dll's causing svhost to use 99% of cpu power. Can I tell which dll's are associated with the instance of svchost that's causing the problem?

Any other offers of advice?

Cheers

Marrtyn

Download and install . Now Run it and post a copy of the Log File here.

You might find a program called Process Explorer to be very handy in determining which program has a particular file or directory open. It can also show you information about which handles and DLLs processes have opened or loaded.
