svchost.exe / lsass.exe for vista
So basically, my cpu is being sucked up by my svchost.exe and lasass.exe.....

when i right clicked svchost.exe in my task manager and clicked services, the services that are being used are "dcomlaunch" and "Plugplay"..........

lsass.exe on the other hand is being used by "KeyIso" "protected storage" and "samSs"

attached are what i see under the "thread" column using process explorer....

i have no idea what to do... and i cant system restore because apparently it was turned off... =/ and i really dont have the time to reformat nor do i have my vista disk... so any help would be great...

i've already tried using AVG and ad-aware to scan my laptop, but it doesnt catch anything wrong....
