Question : I have Webroot Spysweeper 6.1 and NIS 2009 (on Win XP media center SP3). I have been getting the same messsages that svchost is attempting to delete perfdisk,tcpip, and netbt.

I have Webroot Spysweeper 6.1 and NIS 2009 (on Win XP media center SP3). I have been getting the same messsages that svchost is attempting to delete perfdisk,tcpip, and netbt. These messages keep coming almost every 30mins. I saw a similar response on expertsexchange (http://www.experts-exchange.com/OS/Microsoft_Operating_Systems/Windows/XP/Q_23342241.html) that the webroot support guys asked to reduce security levels to get rid of the warning.
My question is .. is it a safe & normal thing to happen - that svchost attempts to delete these files?

I uninstalled AVG after the scan yesterday; so i currently have only Webroot SS & NIS 2009 running. I will run Kaspersky online & post a hijackthis scan soon. Thanks.
