From time to time - no trend or pattern - my system is really sluggish and slow responding. I run XP on a Toshiba Satellite Pentium 4 plenty of ram, hard drive, procesor speed. When I go to Task Manager to see what is going on I find 100% CPU use in a file called svchost.exe. What is that file and what is happening to cause it to consume all the CPU?
 
You'll probably find an answer here:
