So in the last month my internet has been running extremely slow. It is my
computer and I believe it is this svchost.exe that is running. My computer is
running from all users about 10-15 svchosts and taking about the majority of
my physical memory. How do I fix this?

10-15 seems a bit excessive , have you ran a spyware scan ????
spyware often hides itself by running as a fake svchost, this would explain
your pc going slow too

superantispyware is good and its a free program

It is normal to have numerous svchost processes running. Here is an
explanation of that - it is for XP but it is also applicable to Vista:

Svchost.exe in Windows XP - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314056/EN-US/
and

If you are having some other issues, you'll need to provide a lot more
information. These links will help you with that:
