I have windows XP pro, if you need any other info ask because im kinda clueless on what other info ya need :|
I am also using windows xp pro. I always have 5 svchost.exe processes running but i read that it can be normal to have up to 6.
I have 7 svchost.exe processes.
2 svchost.exe processes are used by Local Service, 2 by Network Service and 3 for System.
