Windows XP CPU Usage Problem

[warpman]

I have the following settings:

- Windows XP PRO SP1
- Norton Antivirus Latest Signatures

The problem I have is that there are a couple of process taking almost
100% of the CPU. This is cousing a lot of problems. The 2 precessess /
files are SVCHOST.EXE and WMON16.EXE.
I have run the antivirus program and didn't find any virus. How can I
determine was cousing this problem? Any help would be greatly
appreciated.

No problem. These sneaky buggers are out to get us, so we need to be
extremely careful.
