The process is normal although 100% CPU is not. How about scanning for
spyware?

Charlie,
I wondered about the values in the task manager processes window. Mine says
99 in the System Idle Process.
I assumed this didn't mean it was using 99% of the CPU total power but was
accounting for 99% of whatever power the CPU is using at the moment. The
performance window shows the total usage of the CPU.
So in your case does the performance window say that the CPU is running at
100% capacity and the svchost.exe network service at 100% too?

I'm not sure that McAfee scans for spyware, but I'm not familiar with it.
Lavasoft's Adaware is a popular scanner, but I'm not familiar with it
either.
