Quite recently I was approached by one of my online friend to help find out why he always something flies out of there or does not work. The list of problems he complained to svchost, available in a variety of, and one of them was exactly the problem.
Sound familiar? So what kind of svchost and why it has been so?
Svchost.exe (Generic Host Process for Win32 Services) - system process Microsoft Windows operating system that handles 32-bit DLL and other services. During the boot process on the basis of entries in the register of Svchost.exe is a list of services that need to be run. At the same time may be running multiple instances of Svchost.exe. Each session contains Svchost.exe grouping services, therefore, individual services can be performed depending on how and when launched Svchost.exe. This improves the control and simplifies debugging.

Svchost.exe can be and not be so harmless - most malicious trojans and viruses are disguised as him, in that if this service hangs or a program, it is likely that the alleged intentions of the native process is not the most good.
To find out what is hiding under the guise of svchost, I found a utility Svchost Viewer, and which reveal the secret veil over the activities of the service. The utility is simple, a portable, free and open source. Use it simple: run, click Yes, and look inward all the Svchost.exe, and there is perfectly clear, what programs and services use it.
If this process does not cause the container you trust, then his stop, or freeze. I hope that this tool will help to remove the elusive Trojans (bratish_ka, look primarily at the Svchost.exe, which starts not from system32).
