hi sun

i had the exact problem you have. it was driving me nuts.....i was very close to reinstalling windows as well. i did however find something that worked. try downloading this patch i found on microsofts website..... http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/security/bulletin/MS03-026.asp........im not too computer savvy but it seemed to have fixed the problem. (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

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!!!!

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:

Interesting to note that someone has released a new
virus that takes advantage of that same exploit.

This one tries to patch your machine for you though :)
Awfully nice, I'd say.

Yes, I've heard of that too ... the virus that first removes another virus off your machine, and then downloads the latest windows updates from microsoft.

Good to hear. But I don't understand why your system crashing would fix the error?

I had the blaster worm ,and the way the worm worked at first was the more times you restarted your computer the deeper/more the word did ,to where i couldn't hardly keep the computer running to fix it .I got the svchost errorrpc/service eroor /generic host process/and on and on .got rid of it now .the most important pard of running the remover and patch is to disable the system restore until you completly remove the virus .

It's bogging down some systems more than the slammer did.

Hi im new here. I was searching the net for problems with this svc thing too. Each time i get online, things go ok, for like 5 or 10 minutes, then this stupid program error occurs out of the blue, that basically slows everything down. My computer at that point wouldnt even disconnect when I ask it too, i cant use the command "Open in New Window" when i run my mouse over a link, AND to top it all, i cant use any Javascript or Applet programs or anything that pops up.
Oh and I tried your link, Microsoft said that page doesnt exist. This problem is really frustrating-im already on a slooooow Celeron 600, please please please help.
