Hi, my computer uses 100% of CPU to run svchost.exe is that normal?!
It seems that only when emule runs!

Have you experience the same problem?

EDITed -> SVCHOST.EXE

svchost.exe or svchosts.exe? Because if it's the latter it's a fake process and might be a trojan..

I think I fix it now! I upgrade the windows to SP1a and did a search with spybot and CWshreder and find some kind of spyware.

Thx
