ive got the bugger!!! right i installed process explorer to examine the process tree of  the svchost.exe in question(luckilly it was running at 99percent  cpu so i found the right one. the pid of the svchost in question is PID1396.
the sub processes running within it are all from system 32 and are all legit processes, i checked by disabling the process, my theme  went back to  a very retro looking windows and a few other things went wrong
coz id just killed processes that were needed. there is one process path cwindowspchealthhelpctrpchsvc.dll   im fairly certain this is the culprit and was wondering if anyone has any idea how i get rid of it do i delete  or what?
