I CONSTANTLY HAVE A SVCHOST SERVICE RUNNING AFTER REBOOT AND IT TAKES UP %50 OF CPU USAGE  HIJACK THIS SCAN FOLLOWS..  I CAN END PROCESS WITH TASK MANAGER, BUT CANT FIGURE OUT WHAT IT DOES OR WHAT PROGRAM IT IS ASSOCIATED WITH..  AFTER ENDING PROCESS I FIND NO CHANGE IN THE OPPERATION OF MY PC BESIDES THE EXTRA CPU PROCESSOR ABILITY..  ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED
