Re: svchost.exe spiking to 100% cpu
This isnt a virus. I get it all the time even on a fresh XP install never connected to the internet. Its simply a bug that was never discovered in the final release. As far as I know SP2 fixes it, but as Im not a lover of SP's in any way (they do more harm than good IMO) I learned to live with killing it when needed.
