i received the message "error: logon failure: unknown user name or bad
password"
after trying tasklist /svc

i'm logged in as administrator. i'm using xp pro.

the reason i want to see tasklist is a second instance of svchost.exe
is taking up 30-50% CPU and i'd like to know what it is it's running.
i'm guessing i have a backdoor/trojan but how do i find out?

still the same problem... please please please will someone tell me
what i should do?
thanks.
