How do I stop svghost from downloading megabucks in the background?
This stopped for some months and now it has started again.
 
umm...svghost? thats not a windows thing is it? I mean svchost is but I've never heard of svghost before, maybe a virus then? :)
 
Sorry. SVCHOST.exe
All automatic updates stopped but this programme is chowing my bundle away. Stopped it with DU Supercontroler. But this is a trial programme only.
 
Any good firewall, such as ZoneAlarm or Comodo should enable you to limit/refuse internet access to svchost.exe :)

I personally use NetLimiter 2 Pro, though it's not free :o
