Excessive CPU usage by svchost.exe
I have noticed one machine in our office has always had excessive fan noise, and when I looked into it further I found that one of the svchost.exe processes listed in Task Manager runs with at least 13% CPU usage at all times, constantly. Sometimes it's much higher. The CPU never gets down to an "idle" state with 98-99% resources available, like my machine and every other one I've seen does.
I checked the processes in use by that particular instance of svchost, and found the ones in the attached screen shot. I also ran a check with an updated Malwarebytes and it found nothing.
Any ideas? Is there anything on that list of services that should be disabled?
