I have heard and read that this program (of which about 4 lot are running on
my XP home machine after boot up) is a candidate for malware etc.

Question how do you check this in depth ( I have Adaware, SPybot, Antispyand
Xsoft none of whic find any) ?

How do you reinstall a clean (secure) version of this program and related
without reloading the wholw of XP?

Thanks,

Speedy

svchost.exe is a normal system process,malware might use this process to run
but svchost in itself is not the problem.
You have scanned your system with 4 different malware tools all of which
report a clean system,no worry's mate.
