You never google...

What is svchost.exe And Why Is It Running?

Short answer: svchost is a container for DLL-based services to execute. On WinXP, you need to use tasklist to find out the underlying service.

Looks like it is busy scanning. :D

Why did you install this? I always install the printer driver only. The other bundled SW is really BLOAT ware.
