I am running win2k.
I have two instances of scvhost.exe in my task manager processes. i remember that there used to be only one instance. but now there are two. is this normal? could it have been called up by another program? i have only Serverwatch start up with windows, and uninstalling it seems to have on effect on the second schost.exe running. any ideas on why it is there?

Yeah, two here also. And one of 'em takes up a pisspot-load of memory.
I had four instances running in Whistler 2257, one of them was taking up 14mb ram
