Hi I found this researching viruses. I only just starting using it but were task manager shows processes, this one shows the hidden stuff aswell. And can show you what SVGHOST is doing. And highlight it. As long as svghost is in windows\system. If it is anywere else other than win\system32 I would check it out. Thats what i read anyway. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-au/sysinternals/bb896653.aspx Gregg
