Windows Freezing

[Guest]

A few minutes after firing up my computer, the system slows down incredibly,
and every program running begins to freeze. During this time, I'll bring up
the Task Manager, and look at the processes running. On the top, SVCHOST.exe
(one of a couple running), will be flucuating between 60,000K and 120,000K
Mem Usage, and my CPU usage will be maxed out. It seems to happen when I
connect to the internet, and I can't figure out how to stop it. Can anyone
help?

Microsoft finally came out with a SrvHost fix.

I tried that, but no changes. I learned that if I terminate the process, it
stops. However, I then get kicked off the internet, and my sound stops.
Anyone have any other suggestions? What could be causing the problem? Thanks
for your help!
