windows photo gallery and dllhost.exe taking 60%+CPU

After installing nero I realized that com surrogate would shut down due to
incompatibility, I removed nero with plans on installing the fix later, this
fixed the com surrogate problem, now however I notice that dllhost.exe(direct
component to comsurrogate) is using 60-80% cpu until I end process tree, I
believe I need to "reset" WPG but if so how do I re-install a microsoft
utility? my Laptop specs are:
Dell XPS M1710
4GB Ram
Core 2 Duo 2.33GHZ
nVidia GeForce Go 7950 GTX
Windows Vista Business
Thank you much! Randy

I went back and looked at my diVx and Nero folders and I found that even
though I uninstalled Nero there were still a few files left,
DosBootimage.IMA, mfc71u.dll, NeroHistory.log, VMPEGEncNDX.dll,
after deleting these files I found that when I open WPG (Windows Photo
Gallery) dllhost.exe no longer uses 60%+ CPU power, I believe the problem is
fixed but I will update if it os not, thanks,
Randy
