INTRODUCTION

When typing in text areas of some web pages, the typed characters may intermittently be slow to appear or be omitted entirely.

If Task Manager is used to review the running processes at the time of the slow behavior, the SERVICES.EXE and possibly one instance of the SVCHOST.EXE process may also indicate a significant or sustained increase in CPU utilization.
