Monokip, I too run the same os as you, am virus free (according to Symantec anyway) run a Sygate firewall, and have as of very recently say the 14-15th, have been getting svchost errors too, though not so extreme as your problems (ie, copy/paste) and some weird happenings involving svchost and Sygate's firing agent (?), which caused Sy to fail on init, and spiriling down the rabbit hole even further, as I began attempting connecting to the net, I was online, logged into my isp, yet unable to find server for any site location, any anything, as if I were not online at all, and yet further still to lose all the dial-up connections. Sounds strange, I know, yet true. When I clicked my connection shortcut, I was quickly informed that "connection WTF?? could not be found" (ironically this connection is named WTF?? when a previous connection failed too and I was asking wtf had happened LOL) and I directly opened connections window, and guess what I found. Nothing. All the connections were gone, not even a trail of breadcrumbs to guide me. Was unable to create new connections, the next day was the same scenario, yet the day after (yesterday) all is again well with Win2kPro, we are chums again (minus one bsod at the hands of ntoskrnl.exe) all settings were again intact, moreover, the connections functioned properly.
Has any of that kind of bs happened, and btw did you happen to run Symantec's worm check program and have svchost go bezerk or worsen after? My svchost went insane directly after Sym's hunter/killer program pronounced my os healthy, so I am curious.
