tcpsvcs.exe at 100%

Hi! After installing the latest version of NOD2.0 and rebooting my computer, my comp seem very sluggish. Looking at the processes, I discover that tcpsvcs.exe is running at 100% CPU load. Only when I disable Simple TCP/IP Services did the problem go away. I tried disablign other TCP/IP related services like TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper IPv6 Helper services but the problem still remain.

Looking at the isntallation log, NOD32 2.o seem to install Winsock 2.0 Non-IFS Service Provider Support Environment (W32IFSL.sys) into the system and I suspect that is causing the error?

Please look into he problem
Thanks

 

Hello,

I recommend that you contact NOD32 support at support@nod32.com and provide more detailed information, such as what operating system you use, what service packs you have installed, information about your NOD32 (CC - NOD32 System Tools - Information), or other special programs you might have installed. Also, please let the support know if turning IMON off solves the problem.

 

I am using Windows XP with all the latest service packs and update rollups... ..
No special programs except microsoft IPv6 installed...
turning off IMON does not solve hte problem..

 

I have the same problem after upgrading to NOD32 ver 2 on W2K Professional with all MS updates and fixes installed. Task Manager shows tcpsvcs 50% CPU and svchost 50%. DHCP does not work. W2K ipconfig /renew says:

"The following error occurred when renewing adapter Local Area Connection: An operation was attempted on something that is not a socket."

Disabling AMON and IMON doesn't help. Uninstalling NOD32 does.

Thanks/Mikael

 

Hi all,
a new program component update is going to be released on Monday, so I suggest that you give it a try first. If no avail, let us know either on this forum, or send a message to support.

Just to make sure, did you turn off IMON by clicking the Stop button and restarted the computer? (the same goes for AMON)

 

I would first try running the winsockfix. A program could have either through its installation or uninstallation process corrupted the TCP/IP settings in the registry.

Yeap! I STOPPED both AMONa nd IMON.. and restarted my comp thereafter..
buit seems to be no help...
I did a installation log of NOD32 and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WinSock2\Parameters\Protocol_Catalog9\Catalog_Entries seems to be the problem..
what do you think?

waiting for the monday update..

 

Do you really need simple TCP/IP Services?
Look at this:

On type "problem tpcsvsc" into google.

 

I would again suggest you run this fix. It have solved several similar problems with NOD32. After running the fix, you may have to reactivate IMON through your contol panel....

 

I use Win XP sp2.
I remove it from automatic services.
I read in other site it isn't important.

Others have had this problem as well. From what I've read - I've never experienced the problem - you can set IMON to exclude tcpsvcs.exe via - IMON >Setup>MiscellaneousTab>Exclusion>Edit and see if that does the trick for you.

Others may be able to make recommendations as to possible security risks by doing so. I am not familiar with them.
