they are just windows things.... don't worry about them I have 7

 

[chrisalviola]

yes but they take memory. you can end task some of them.

 

[Ku-sama]

tell me which one I should End task to? SVCHOST or SVCHOST?

 

[chrisalviola]

if you endtask the wrong svchost your system restarts.

WOW REALLY!?!?!?!? did you ever thing it could do some damage to your OS if you keep shutting down inappropriate services?

Also, it wont harm anything if you didn't have alot of startup services such as AIM or something, that can make your system run a tad faster


its like 50 megs of RAM, cry....
