Please help, computer running slow think SVCHost.exe is responsible.

Hi.
Everytime I start my computer it lags and I cannot access the internet. I have to go into the process running and delete one of the scvhost.exe processess (it is always running in the 90's). After this everything is fine. I have run hijackthis as H.exe.
Below are the results from the hijack this scan:

Download Vundofix and run it per the following instructions:

 

  1. Please print these instructions as they will be needed later when Internet access is not available.

    Or save these instructions in word or notepad to the desktop where they can be easily found.

  2. Download Vundo Fix and save it to your desktop.

  3. When it has completed downloading, double-click VundoFix.exe to run it.

  4. Click the Scan for Vundo button.

  5. Once it's done scanning, click the Remove Vundo button.

  6. You will now receive a prompt asking if you want to remove the files, click the YES button. Once you click yes, your desktop will go blank as it starts removing Vundo.

  7. When completed, it will prompt that it will shutdown your computer, click the OK button.

  8. When the computer has shutdown, turn your computer back on.

Run a new HJT, scan only, and check any of these that remain then Fix Checked.

I see you have msconfig running so go into MSCONFIG and change it back to a normal boot then reboot.

Then do another HJT scan and make a log and post it along with the log from vundofix in your next reply.  Do you still see the svchost process running at 90%?
