| | my pc was infected by w32.blaster worm and has now created a memory process svchost.exe, my OS is win2000 prof.edition, the worm was completely remove from the boot record after i run a worm removal kit(stinger), however the removal kit does'nt recognize the svchost.exe so it was bypassed and now resides in the memory, the svchost will automatically run itself after a few minutes of connecting to intrnet. i also got a message "access denied" evrytime i attempt to end the svchost process in the memory using the task manager. what should i do? how can i prevent it from slowing down my PC? thanks... |

| Thats the welcha worm virus you got there, if your SVCHOST is using all your processing power. Download the patch and there is also a symantec fix for it too which will remove it. Download both the patch and fix files, disconnect from internet, run the fix then patch.
Edit: find the fix here http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.welchia.worm.removal.tool.html
and patch here: http://www.rcub.bg.ac.yu/Antivirus/Q815021_WXP_SP2_x86_ENU.exe |

| | I had the svchost problem with Windows 2000 and resolved it. I used the disk and patches from http://website.lineone.net/~ejthompson/ .It was good to have everything on one CD that has been created solely to sort out this svchost problem for Win 2000. |

| For XP Pro users:
Go to Control Panel-->Administrative Tools and put your User Name in every Group with elevated administrative rights.
After that you would be able terminate any process.
It's that simple ! ! ! |
