[QUOTE="LabZero, post: 384327"] Hello, Often we notice that our computer slows down and doing Ctrl + ALT + DELETE, the allocated memory is high, with many [B]svchost.exe processes open[/B], behind which may be hidden useful services to the computer or even viruses and trojans. Now we will see how to understand what services and what exactly is svchost.exe. [ATTACH=full]57020[/ATTACH] [I][B]Svchost.exe[/B][/I] Svchost.exe is a Windows process that it contains other individual services used for different functions. On your pc can be several svchost.exe processes running, and each instance can have different services. Let's see now what services there are inside each svchost.exe process. To do this we will use this tool: [URL]https://svchostviewer.codeplex.com/[/URL] [ATTACH=full]57021[/ATTACH] This program gives us a lot of useful information (run as administrator) [I][B]- The number of open processes Svchost.exe - The services contained within each Svchost.exe process - The memory used by each process and each content service - Process ID - Description of each service started - The Path (location) of the process[/B][/I] everything what we need, in addition, this program does not require any installation, just launch it! Finally, once you've seen the services started, just use Google to find out what they are and what services are suspected behind which you can hide [B]viruses[/B] or [B]trojans[/B]. [/QUOTE]
