scvhost is using 100% of CPU.... HELP

Hi guys,

I have had this problem for a while and nothing I seem to do fixes it. I can normally get about 1/2 an hour out of my system before the CPU goes to 100%. After looking at the other posts on this issue I extracted the following log from my system. Does this help anyone to find the problem?? Sorry but I really have no idea about this.

Thanks for any help you can give me..
