[Inactive] Generic host process for windows32 services encountered...

Spy cookiez · 23rd November 2008

I've been experiencing this error for a few days and it will not go away, normally it appears 5-30 minutes after connecting to the internet and will thereafter cause the computer to freeze and I have to hold the power button to turn off the computer. Ive tried many spyware removal programs and have looked at the thread that resolved this for someone else (didn't work for me).

It refers to "svchost.exe" generating errors.
Also, i cannot gain access to msconfig on Run, related?
Please help me.
