Svchost.exe is a kind of "helper" program that lets DLL files run as
executables when running as a service.
As a first step I would download and run either Spybot S&D or Ad-Aware
(prefeabley both) to scan for and remove Spyware/Malware. Then see how
things run after that. I would also, after you have done that,...make sure
you AV software is fully updated and do a full scan of the machine.
Chances are, once the machine is "clean" the problem will go away.
