View Full Version : svchost.exe maxing out cpu?

2007-04-13, 05:55
hello, on my pc, since around the 23rd of last month my pc has been acting very weird. There is a file, wich I know windows uses, that keeps maxing out. There are several of them running, wich is usualy normal, but one of them maxes out the CPU at 99. It never drops below 77. I have to close it to run anything but my sound completely dissapears. I've even had to reinstall my sound drivers several times. I am unsure as to why this has happened. I've ran several Anti-Virus programs. I have use Avast!, Sytem Suite, and now I've downloaded a trial of Norton Anti-Virus 2007 and none of them find anything wrong 'cept for maybe an adware problem here and then. Spybot Search & Destroy found the program that was using the adware, wich was Zango and removed it. But this was not the problem. Here is my HiJackThis log. I am baffled beyond belief, as this has never happened before. I have come to you guys before for help, and it worked out great. So I ask that you help a baffled, yet very appreciative fan.
Sincerely,
SmerrillS

Also just a little bit of extra info, I could not use any of the online antivirus scanners. None of them would load, or download their activex controlls, or they would say there was a problem. I have enabled activex controlls so that it could, and yet they still would crash. I could get the one from norton online that i had used..would that work for you? Please let me know.
Hello smerrills :)
You're infected.
Please download VundoFix.exe (http://www.atribune.org/ccount/click.php?id=4) to your desktop.
Double-click VundoFix.exe to run it.
Click the Scan for Vundo button.
Once it's done scanning, click the Remove Vundo button.
You will receive a prompt asking if you want to remove the files, click YES
Once you click yes, your desktop will go blank as it starts removing Vundo.
When completed, it will prompt that it will reboot your computer, click OK.
Please post the contents of C:\vundofix.txt and a new HiJackThis log.
Note: It is possible that VundoFix encountered a file it could not remove.
In this case, VundoFix will run on reboot, simply follow the above instructions starting from "Click the Scan for Vundo button." when VundoFix appears at reboot.

quick question, should I go into safe-mode to do this? Or disconnect my internet?

So do you have any other suggestions?

Also, this pc is still doing the whole svchost.exe spiking to 99. I had to close the program to even get internet explorer up to post these. And now there's processes that have started up that I dont recognize at all....
When I used task manager to close the svchost.exe only sounds that play are sytem sounds.
Hope that bit of info helps.

update,
The pc if I let it sit, calms down. The svchost.exe drops after about ten minutes or so. Everything works normal. And I've looked through the files runing that I didnt recognize, and actualy, i recognize quite a few of them. So they are files that were running before, i had disabled them, and for some reason they started up again. So maybe I need to just get rid of those again. Old programs that I dont need running. But again, thank you for your help, and I await your instructions.

Looks better...Let's do some more research...
Please run a GMER Rootkit scan:
Download GMER's application from here:
http://www.gmer.net/gmer.zip
Unzip it and start the GMER.exe
Click the Rootkit tab and click the Scan button.
Once done, click the Copy button.
This will copy the results to your clipboard.
Paste the results in your next reply.
Warning ! Please, do not select the "Show all" checkbox during the scan.
Generate a HijackThis Startup list:
Open HijackThis: Click on "Open the Misc Tools Section"
Check the following boxes to the right of "Generate StartupList Log": List also minor sections (Full)
List empty sections (Complete)
Click "Generate StartupListLog"
Click "Yes" at the prompt.
A Notepad window will open with the contents of the HijackThis Startup list displayed
Copy & Paste that log to here

Hello :)
Ok I think that the reason for the slowdown is that you have two (2) antiviruses installed and running, AVG Antivirus and Norton. Running more that one antivirus at the same time may cause all kinds of problems and is NOT recommended.
You should leave only one (1) antivirus running. You should uninstall/disable either AVG Antivirus or Norton. When you have decided, you can uninstall your choice through Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs..
Please notice that if your Norton includes a firewall and you decide to remove Norton, You must install a new firewall too. In that case these are good and free firewalls:Sunbelt-Kerio (http://www.sunbelt-software.com/Kerio.cfm), ZoneAlarm (http://www.zonelabs.com/), Sygate (http://http://www.majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=3356), Outpost (http://www.majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=1056)
Restart and post a fresh HijackThis log when you have removed the other antivirus and we'll see if it is completely removed...

That is odd...because I never installed avg anti-virus. I've got avast, but I thought i had shut down everything that came with avast!. And I think I may have installed another one, but I thought I had disabled that one too because neither of them found anything, but i wanted to keep them incase one or the other stopped working. I have norton only for the free trial and I only installed that after this started happening. In fact, avast was the only one I was running untill this happened.
I noticed something though, when i turned off internet explorer the last night. I had been looking through security center, and automatic updates was turned on, but I had it set to download updates, and i'd install them later. I turned it off..just to see what would happen. And it stopped. So maybe there's something wrong with automatic update?
But I'll uninstall norton when I get back home, and see if it helps anyway.
Thank you so far with everything. And i'll get back to you with new logs soon.

new HJT Log....
But...I cannot find AVG anti-virus anywhere. I installed that AVG Anti-Spyware you told me to....but I don't see anything dealing with AVG Anti-Virus. I've even done two hard drive searches. But..those avg files that start up appeared after i installed that AVG anti-spyware thing...So I'm just gonna uninstall it and see how that works.

I noticed something though, when i turned off internet explorer the last night. I had been looking through security center, and automatic updates was turned on, but I had it set to download updates, and i'd install them later. I turned it off..just to see what would happen. And it stopped. So maybe there's something wrong with automatic update?
Hmm...what stopped ?

The svchost.exe stopped spiking like it was. And I tested it this morning and when I turned it back on, svchost.exe spiked again. So, I think that there might be something wrong with automatic updates. Because it has never done that before. Not even when I had it set to automaticaly download updgrades on its own.
But then again, I'm no software genius. I may be able to rip a pc appart and diagnose hardware issues, when it comes to windows (cept for things i've recently learned) I"m clueless. At least with Windows XP.
So any ideas?
Hi :)
Ahaa I see...This is propably a prolem with the updates...
Try if installing this hotfix (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;Q927891) helps.
This update decreases the duration of a scan that uses the Windows Update Agent. However, a scan is still a CPU-intensive operation. The Svchost.exe process contains the Automatic Updates service. When you perform a scan, the Svchost.exe process can cause CPU utilization to reach 100 percent for a prolonged time. For example, Microsoft Office updates use Windows Installer. When Microsoft Office updates are detected, these updates can contribute to 100 percent CPU utilization for a prolonged time.
Let me know how it went :bigthumb:
