Sometimes scientists make things alot harder than they need to. All they've gotta do is put a big spring on the ground where they think it's gonna land, or send a mission to the moon to erect a sign that says "Welcome to Earth".

Svchost checks the registry to find a list of services that loads at startup. Each one has like a different group of services.
