Guest IgNiTE Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 hey there, I know there is few fourms out the on this files. But It wasnt quite helpful. My problem is this svchost.exe file Now shows up in my taskmanaher like 5 to 6 places. 2 files for - NETWORK SAERVICES 1 file for - LOCAL SERVICE 3 files for - SYSTEM What I mean is svchost.exe shows up in my TASKMANAGER 6 times. So its running in background or sumthing. How I do find out which is legit and which one is not. So we can get rid of it. Any input is appriciated. Thanks. Quote
Guest MowGreen [MVP] Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 Some services are dependent upon svchost. You can see what service is dependent upon each instance of a svchost Process by using Process Explorer: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinte...s/bb896653.aspx MowGreen [MVP 2003-2008] =============== -343- FDNY Never Forgotten =============== IgNiTE wrote: <span style="color:blue"> > hey there, > I know there is few fourms out the on this files.
