I remember reading that, on a geological scale, things have been more stable planet-wide over the last 10,000 years than "normal", and it's only recently that things have started swinging back into what "should" be happening.

Weather shouldn't be political. I know it is, but it shouldn't. It should be factual science, regardless of your political affiliation.
Anyhow, I am going to get 5-12" of snow by tonight (upstate new york), and I blame it solely on Willy Wonka's little friends.

The proper apparel for gin imbibing is black tie or lounge suit. When in forn parts, karkis when one is outside and wearing a pith helmet is also acceptable.

Hear, hear! If the standards of the British Empire are not upheld, it will mean the end of Civilisation!
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

All web page are very slow today.
Just started Task Manager: very high network usage, by svchost! (i.e. I have no clue what does it).
It doesn't seem to be windows update.
For the record I have Windows 10 fully updated to the latest version and haven't installed anything in months.
Now network usage is a little bit better, it's looks like a chain saw (repeated teeth) every seconds (up to max network usage).
(Sysinternal) Process Explorer is not very helpful to diagnose...
Any clue how to diagnose what could be wrong?!
[EDIT] Reboot seems to have fixed it. Might have been a Windows bug after all...

It's a tool that allows services to run from DLL files instead of EXE.
It does sometimes get confused when a service fails and goes ballistic in it's usage - CPU, Memory and / or network.
Generally, just "turn it off and back on again" fixes the problem!

yeah I know what svchost. it is innocent. but it hide the root cause of the trouble! :S

Yup a virus, it's called microsoft.

The trick is to find out which process started that svchost process.
A candidate might be Defender when updating the signatures. Or you are pushing Windows updates (update P2P file sharing has not been disabled).

Right click your taskbar, open task manager, go to the menu "View", "Select Columns" and add "Command Line". The definitions are somewhere in the registry, a quick google should give you that location

well.. it's
svchost -k netsvc
it starts up 19 services. doesn't tell me which one in particular is (was) the problem

No, it only identifies what is running. If a service has a problem to report, I'd expect it'd be reported in the event log.

Find that instance of svchost.exe in Process Explorer. If you don't have the process ID, you should still be able to tell which instance through the CPU column. Then right-click, Properties, Services.
It still won't tell you which service is chewing through the CPU, but at least you'll be able to name each one of those 19 services (it's not clear to me whether you already had that part). I'd just start shutting them down one-by-one (at the risk of crashing the system)--at least, those running under your own profile as opposed to System--and keeping an eye on the CPU usage as you're doing that.

Another possible candidate: Windows Store could be updating your "don't-call-them-metro-apps" in the background.

ha yeah, could be.
that wouldn't appear as a windows update, but would use the windows update service, I guess.. which was launch by this instance of svchost...

Next time it happens you can narrow down the offender by getting the svchost's PID on the details tab of task mangler. From there you can find the services running in that process by sorting on the PID on the services tab. Stopping them one at a time while watching the CPU load will let you find exactly which one is elephanted.

Wanna fix it fast?
Go to control panel -> administrator tools -> task scheduler
select all of them, right click and disable every task scheduled that's in there.
Mute your sound.
Download AdwCleaner from bleepingcomputer.com and run that once.
(bleepingcomputer.com webpage has an annoying as with sound now)
It will run like a deer.

Hey, clever! 
Might try that next time!

It's easier than that - just right-click on the svchost entry on the details tab, and select "Go to service(s)".
Or find and expand the svchost entry on the processes tab - all of the associated services will be listed underneath it.

I wasn't sure how far back that feature worked and wanted to give the one I was sure work work as far back as w7.
