|
|
I have 6 different svchost.exe showing in mt task manager.
3 are shown as being used by SYSTEM.2 by NETWORK SERVICE, and 1 by LOCAL SERVICE. are these all necessary? I have read where spyware/malware can be disguised as svchost.exe.
can anyone advise me?

Those are normal. Malware can be disguised as anything, but in the absence of other symptoms I would say those are all real.
