(i usually get that stupid svchost.exe message after about 5 mins.....havent had a problem since i downloaded the patch) im also using windows 2k...hope this helped

sorry....i think this is correct

Thank you.

Unfortunately, I have to reboot just to click on the link so I really, really hope this works. If it doesn't, I don't know what I'm going to do!!!!

::crossing fingers::

I believe it's a virus. Heaps of people have it where I work. We're waiting for a pushout of a new nortons antivirus definitions...

So far, it worked .... I think. LOL

Yes, I think it was that MAJOR virus that has been all over the media today.

I haven't encountered this svchost error. However, I was working on the new tutorials section of TechTalk earlier when McAfee VirusScan Online popped up from my system tray informing me about the breakout of this new virus. I didn't bother downloading the latest virus definitions 'cuz I was busy programming and didn't wanna be bothered. Think I'll go do that right now ;) And maybe make a system back-up via PowerQuest DriveImage while I'm at it ;)

It was that msblast.exe worm virus thing. (Well, that's what was causing my problems). Other symptoms is that it blocked all external sites from IE (netscape worked tho???), I couldn't open new windows from IE (when it was still letting me onto external sites) etc etc.

Bloody virus. Lost half of yesterday because of it. Had to watch DVDs instead of working :cheesy:
