EXPERTS EXCHANGE

There are 1000s of comments, about this error - SVCHOST.EXE

The following is my experience.

Here is the Program Error, as it appears on my computer at Start-up, in its dialog box:

svchost.exe has generated errors and will be closed by Windows. You will need to restart the program. An error log is being created.

I just close it by using Task Manager or clicking it I (It takes a few seconds to close). It does no damage as best as I can tell: but it does slow things down at Start, and needs to be closed before the computer runs, and or may mean that there is a problem somewhere unseen doing damage. I have looked online, at many articles about this issue, e g, MicroSoft. I have never seen the error log if it actually makes one - does it make one?. Yet, there are many examples of svchost.exe error hijack logs online. The error causes many different problems for others, but again, it seems minor for me.

I am unsure how to stop the error. I thought that XP Repair Pro 2007 would definitively solve this, as many other software products claim they can. It is not a virus, in this case.

My Dell GX 260 desktop computer is well maintained - and still in extended warranty. OS - XP Home SP 2, LAN (Ethernet), ADSL2+ with IE 7 + Google. I have Kaspersky Internet Security 6, plus all the Microsoft Hotfixes and patches are current, too. I do an occasional full computer scan with XP Repair Pro 2007, Microsoft Live OneCare Safety Scanner, Dell PC Checker, so on logically.

And, the Solution is - if any?
Does it make a log (always?).
And or , is there a match to my software and or experience here, in E E too? I have a good look over time and by various search word combination too. Excuse me if so.

*THANKS
Robert
