Recently an svchost.exe process has been sucking major amounts of memory from my desktop computer. I cannot figure out what changed and why this is happening. Antivirus isn't finding anything weird.

Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

System Stats:
Manufacturer: Dell
i7-3770 CPU @ 3.4ghz
RAM: 12 GB
OS: Windows 7 - 64 bit

Thanks.
