| Hi David, After reading your answer to this post i went to Task Manger
| and found five (5) svchost.exe services running - 3 Network Services ,
| and 2 System. Now after seeing your answer and checking
| Process Library and finding out this svchost.exe could be used by a
| Trojan, How can i find out the path's of these services in Task Manger
| like in your example? Thanks Ron (Defender)
|

It is common to have multiple SVCHOST.EXE processes running. Each load
specifcommunication
capabilities of the OS.

Like I said, it is not the name of the file that is important, it is the Fully
Qualified
Name and Path to that file.
