Here are all the locations of dllhost.exe on my computer:Ĭ:\Windows\winsxs\amd64_microsoft-windows-com-surrogate_31bf3856ad364e35_.16385_none_a018e05d0d33081dĬ:\Windows\SysWOW64 (this is the one the processes are coming from)Ĭ:\Windows\winsxs\x86_microsoft-windows-com-surrogate_31bf3856ad364e35_.16385_none_43fa44d954d596e7Īre any of the three other places normal for dllhost.exe? My computer is a 64-bit Dell Windows 7 PC, if that makes any difference. I did a quick search on my computer's files for dllhost.exe, and I do have three instances of it in other folders, but I don't want to be too quick to trust just anything I read online. In my research online, I saw something stating that the program dllhost.exe is a virus if it's not located in the folder C:\Windows\System32 and that I can stop the problem simply by deleting it. I've run multiple scans on Malwarebites and SUPERAntiSpyware both in and out of Safe Mode, but the former finds no problems with my computer, and while the latter has found and removed several files over the course of its scans, the problem remains. For one thing, sometimes one of one of my internet tabs will randomly open up some sort of advertisement website, which leads me to believe that this problem is likely caused by some sort of virus or malware. Manually terminating them all temporarily fixed things, but it took barely any time at all before they automatically came back.

The processes are described as COM Surrogate and their full file name is C:\Windows\SysWOW64\dllhost.exe. I checked the Task Manager, and found at least a dozen copies of the process "dllhost.exe" running at the same time and bringing my CPU up to nearly 100%. I restarted it, but it wasn't but minutes later before it slowed down again.

So, one night recently, I noticed that my computer suddenly became incredibly sluggish. I apologize in advance if I'm unhelpful in any way. Hello! I only just joined this site, and I feel like I should preface this post by saying that I don't 100% understand the workings of this forum and I'm not very experienced with computers.
