Posted November 25, 200519 yr check this out, is this normal (the multiple instances of the .exe program running)? and no i dont mean the red box )corjello(
November 25, 200519 yr 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.
November 25, 200519 yr 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.
November 25, 200519 yr 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.

November 27, 200519 yr Windows task manager is an excellent little app, I love being able to monitor my CPU usage as well.
November 27, 200519 yr how do i find this information? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> thank you. i have 41 processes right now, with between 2-18% usage-with this site, another site, zone alarm, ie, av, and emule running. i am guessing i am about middle of the road?
