SVHOST.EXE
Hello everybody. My name is Andy and I wouldn't be here if I had no problem.
About ten days ago I noticed my internet was getting slower and slower. I checked my connection and I found out that I was uploading (sending packages) a lot, even when I was not active on the internet.
My AVG scanner found the usual rubbish on my hard drive but this wasn't the solution to my problem. So I downloaded and a lot of anti-virus programs, none of them really helping. On the web I found out that maybe I had a SVHOST.EXE problem. And yes, that might be
, especially since my computer was showing a startup message warning like: 'Windows cannot find svhost.exe. Make sure you typed the name correctly....blahblahblah.'
I searched for svhost.exe and I found it in Windows/Prefetch (brotherly near svchost.exe).
- Now some forums on the web say svhost is no good: delete it immediately.
Is this true?
- And how about the start up message?
But the funny thing is, after downloading, installing and uninstalling all these anti-virus/spyware programs (but also after defragmenting my hard drive and registry), my internet connection wasn't that slow any more.
Yet, it's still 'uploading' something...
I also downloaded Hijack This to create a log file of running processes. I found out that some instance of Logitech (like: C:\Program Files\Logitech\Desktop Messenger\8876480\Program\BWPlugProtocol-8876480.dll) is running wild on my machine.
Even more funnier is that when I browsed PC Review I stumbled upon Sticky's online Hijack This tip in this forum. I did what he advised and I include my log file here:

SVHOST.EXE is there!
(And how come none of all these great anti-this/anti-that programs (I must have tried seven, eight of them: avg, Kaspersky, spybot, and more but I forgot their names) never detected svhost.exe??
So I think I should delete svhost.exe but how about all these logitech registry files? (One month ago I installed a webcam from logitech. But with Kaspersky peeping, every click with my mouse triggers a warning from Kaspersky that Logitech is 'invading' some application).
OK guys, a lot of questions from a newcomer.
Thanks for answering (?).
Andy
Hello everybody. My name is Andy and I wouldn't be here if I had no problem.
About ten days ago I noticed my internet was getting slower and slower. I checked my connection and I found out that I was uploading (sending packages) a lot, even when I was not active on the internet.
My AVG scanner found the usual rubbish on my hard drive but this wasn't the solution to my problem. So I downloaded and a lot of anti-virus programs, none of them really helping. On the web I found out that maybe I had a SVHOST.EXE problem. And yes, that might be
I searched for svhost.exe and I found it in Windows/Prefetch (brotherly near svchost.exe).
- Now some forums on the web say svhost is no good: delete it immediately.
Is this true?
- And how about the start up message?
But the funny thing is, after downloading, installing and uninstalling all these anti-virus/spyware programs (but also after defragmenting my hard drive and registry), my internet connection wasn't that slow any more.
Yet, it's still 'uploading' something...
I also downloaded Hijack This to create a log file of running processes. I found out that some instance of Logitech (like: C:\Program Files\Logitech\Desktop Messenger\8876480\Program\BWPlugProtocol-8876480.dll) is running wild on my machine.
Even more funnier is that when I browsed PC Review I stumbled upon Sticky's online Hijack This tip in this forum. I did what he advised and I include my log file here:

SVHOST.EXE is there!
(And how come none of all these great anti-this/anti-that programs (I must have tried seven, eight of them: avg, Kaspersky, spybot, and more but I forgot their names) never detected svhost.exe??
So I think I should delete svhost.exe but how about all these logitech registry files? (One month ago I installed a webcam from logitech. But with Kaspersky peeping, every click with my mouse triggers a warning from Kaspersky that Logitech is 'invading' some application).
OK guys, a lot of questions from a newcomer.
Thanks for answering (?).
