SvcHost is taking 100% of CPU. It appears to be either DcomLaunch or TermService - virus? So my SvcHost is all of a sudden taking 100% of my CPU, and I'd like to figure out which service is responsible for this. Is there any way to differentiate the load being generated by the multiple services running in a single SvcHost?

I would suggest grabbing Microsoft/SysInternals Process Explorer. With process explorer you can open the specific svchost process and see which services are being run from that process. You can then use the "Services" tab in the process details to stop individual services to find the culprit.

I suggest you give AVIRA AntiVirus a try. It has a higher detection rates than any major antivirus out there. I definitely recommend it.
