    Hi,
    I've updated a machine and noticed that there's one less instance of svchost running. Most likely something to do with the recent bunch of WU. Anyone noticed, has anything wise to enlighten me?

    I'm also FULLY updated with Windows XP SP2; and after Restart, I have my 3 svchost.exe:

    svchost.exe ( SYSTEM ): Memory Use 4764 Kb,

    svchost.exe ( SYSTEM ): 20680 Kb,

    svchost.exe ( Local ): 4092 Kb.

    That's all, sorry ...
