Good lord! You've got every mcafee process and service known to science running there. I think if you examine the fine print you will find that it all protects your sys by bogging it down so slowww that any virus will die of old age before it can replicate.

Okay, that may not sound like much help, but....
svchost is just running processes, it's a handler -you would see several of em going like the clappers. Log is clean, cept for all the mcafee stuff.
