1. svchosts are system tasks, leave them alone it is normal to have a bunch. 2. Ati driver always have two processes, thats normal, one for each video output. 3. CLI on the other hand is part of norton, it should only have one process. ---

CLI.exe is the ATI Catalyst Control Center, so hopefully you have an ATI graphics card. ---

here’s a great resource. [http://www.answersthatwork.com/Tasklist\_pages/tasklist.htm](http://www.answersthatwork.com/Tasklist_pages/tasklist.htm) an alphabetical listing of good and bad programs that should or shouldn’t be running on your machine. disregard where it sez to use “such and such” software to get rid of programs. that’s just their sponsor talking. ---

Go to Run and type in msconfig.exe. Click the Startup tab and see if there are any duplicate items you can uncheck 🙂 ---

[ot]just searched a random thing: svchost.exe and this came up:[http://www.liutilities.com/products/wintaskspro/processlibrary/svchost/](http://www.liutilities.com/products/wintaskspro/processlibrary/svchost/) i’ve used this site many many times, it is very helpful, because it knows, i think, every process, and will also tell you if it is harmful or not. hope this helps. :)[/ot]
