svchost high memory usage

Post by jim milewski »

Wow! A new problem, the memory usage for one of six running svchost in task manager (also Process Explorer) keeps growing to the point of all my remaining memory is taken, it's the svchost responsible for Windows Audio, DHCP, System Event Notification and a lot of other ones. I can kill the process but it soons starts back up relentlessly and swells like yeast in bread! Anyone have experience with this, thanks
