svchost.exe (netsvcs) high memory utilization

Hi

A user is complaining about his computer slowing down at least twice a day for up to twenty minutes each time

During these occurrences the memory used by a particular svchost.exe climbs to 1GB
Please see the attached images to view the services concerned, and memory status during slowdown

I have checked his Windows 7 computer Lenovo Thinkcenter M90 ( i3 CPU 530 2.93GHz) and all seems clean and up to date - I updated the motherboard's firmware

I ran Malwarebytes and all is clean

I'm not sure if I should be worried by the presence of 81 hardware faults ?

I have checked the events log and detected nothing out of the ordinary or cause for alarm

The diagnostics-performance log however has numerous warnings and a few critical errors:
100, 101, 200,201, 500, 501

Any ideas ?

thanks
