All computers in the world use a protocol called TCP/IP to use the internet. Information can be sent through two methods. The two protocols are TCP and UDP.

If a computer only had hardware parts it would be completely useless.In order to use these parts you need and Operating System (OS).

When you first turn yourn your computer on, the OS is loaded from the hard drive to your RAM.The part of the OS that interacts with the hardware is called kernel.The part of the OS that interacts with user is called shell.A user can either use CLI or GUI.You are probably most used to GUI. 

If you use CLI you have to directly enter the commands in Command Prompt.GUI lets you use the OS with images,text and other graphics.

Ctfmon is the process that controls Alternative User Input and the Office Language bar.This how you control your computer with speech,or a pen or using the onscreen keyboard inputs for Asian languages.If are using these services you should leave it on.But if you don`t you can still get rid of it and i`ll show you how.There are a number of ways that this can be done.

So you probably are wondering what in the world is svchost.exe.You didn`t start it and you can get rid of it so what is it?

What is it? 

Microsoft defines it as a "generic host process name for services that run from dynamic-link libraries".This means that a while back  Microsoft decided to move all the internal services of Windows to .dll files.Svchost.exe is there because you can`t directly launch a .dll file from WIndows,therefore it needs to be run through a .exe.And that is why the svchost.exe process runs today.
