hazelnut Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Just had a look at mine corjello. Apart from the fact you have 3 svchost .exe SYSTEM. ( I have 2 ) I also have 2 of everything else. Don't know if that's good or bad! I'm sure someone will tell us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultimate Predator Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 I don't know the ins and outs of this, but I had a look at mine and it was kind of similar to yours. Hmm, we'll wait and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DjLizard Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Here's a tasklist.exe (which only comes with XP Pro) dump of my svchosts (so, here is why some people have a few, and others have more) : svchost.exe 732 DcomLaunch, TermService svchost.exe 788 RpcSs svchost.exe 856 AudioSrv, Browser, CryptSvc, Dhcp, dmserver, ERSvc, EventSystem, FastUserSwitchingCompatibility, helpsvc, lanmanserver, lanmanworkstation, Messenger, Netman, Nla, NtmsSvc, RasMan, Schedule, seclogon, SENS, SharedAccess, ShellHWDetection, TapiSrv, Themes, TrkWks, w32time, winmgmt, wscsvc, wuauserv, WZCSVC svchost.exe 900 Dnscache svchost.exe 932 LmHosts, RemoteRegistry, SSDPSRV, upnphost, WebClient svchost.exe 3204 HTTPFilter Some people have a lot of services running, some people have not as many (depends on whether you're on XP Pro, Home, have avast, Norton, McAfee, other programs that run services (like all-in-one printers), or whatever) It's quite normal. The number next to each line is the PID (process ID) number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
