Hi all,

I just noticed that one copy of svchost.exe has a 1.9GB VM Size. I'd like to know what this pid is up to but when I say
tasklist
I get
ERROR: Invalid class.

ultimately it would be nice to know why svchost got so big, but having tasklist work is a good step I think. Thanks for any insight.

Eric,

Try these commands from Start, Run:

regsvr32 %Windir%\system32\wbem\fastprox.dll
regsvr32 %Windir%\system32\wbem\wbemprox.dll
regsvr32 %Windir%\system32\wbem\wbemsvc.dll

Alternately, you can use Process Explorer from www.sysinternals.com to
manage Windows Processes.
