I'm using Windows XP Home ed. and when I look at my process list
(Ctrl+Alt+Delete, processes tab) there are approximately five copies of
svchost.exe running at the same time. they are listed under different users
(3 listed as 'service' one listed as 'network service' and the last under
'local service'). Is this normal behaviour? Should I be worried about a
malicious program hijacking svchost? Is it safe to kill some of the sessions
and free up memory? If so, which sessions do I leave and which do I take out?
Thanks
