Well, even for some of the legititamtely named processes, it's hard to tell if they are actually real because virus processes can be disguised as a real process.
mspaint.exe is just mspaint
firefox.exe is firefox
taskmgr.exe is the Task Manager
svchost.exe, there's always a bunch of these, but can be a disguise for a virus
