ccSvcHost using 100% CPU....

Never saw this before. Any advice, other than go have a cup of coffee and come back? Event viewer/log showed no clue other than "WIA entering running state"...... I'm not sure if WIA is relevant or not, but it wouldn't hurt to disable it to see what effect that might have. I'll try that. But this is entirely new behavior. Also, have you ever used Process Explorer to determine which sub-process is calling upon the System process? No, nobody ever led me to that. And please note that SvcHost was listed with System as having called it, not Compaq-Owner, so I don't believe it was Norton-related. There is some confusion here! What is the name of the subprocess?
