Always wondered why I had so many instances of svchost...always too lazy to research it though.
It' been some time since I looked at this file on my system. I think I still have it at the house and will check on it this evening for you.
However, I checked the file size on my SVCHOST file running on Windows XP (\Windows\System32\svchost.exe) and it's size is also 12K, so I don't think that's your problem. Also try right-clicking on the file and checking it's properties. It should show legit Microsoft information like:
"Generic Host Process for Win32 Services".
