Svchost.exe er en "værts" proces for andre services (tjenesteprogrammer) der kører fra dynamic-link libraries (DLLer).
Du har vel ikke kommet til at tilføje dospromten(Det åbne dosvindue) i din startmeny: Start/alle programmer/start ?

"Service Host - Generic Host Process for Win32 Services. Windows 2000/XP
only. SVCHOST is a generic process which acts as a host for processes that
run from DLLs rather than EXEs. At startup SVCHOST checks the Services
portion of the Registry to construct a list of DLL-based services that it
needs to load, and then loads them. There can be many instances of SVCHOST
running, as there will be one instance of SVCHOST for every DLL-based
service or grouping of services (the grouping of services is determined by
the programmers who wrote the services in question). Under Windows XP
Professional you can find out what DLL-based services SVCHOST is running by
typing Tasklist /SVC at a Command Prompt (MS-DOS Prompt - this command is
not available in Windows XP Home), while under Windows 2000 you need to use
the TLIST -s command from a Command Prompt (MS-DOS Prompt).
Recommendation :
An integral part of the operating system, leave alone - multiple instances
of SVCHOST is a normal occurrence. If you experience SVCHOST errors, the
problem is most likely not with SVCHOST but with the DLLs it is hosting."
