What service WinHTTP Web Proxy Auto-Discovery Service needs to function properly:
* DHCP Client(HB, HP, B, U)
o Ancilliary Function Driver for Winsock (HB, HP, B, U)
o NetIO Legacy TDI Support Driver (HB, HP, B, U)
+ TCP/IP Protocol Driver (HB, HP, B, U)

To reveal svchost.exe handles in Win 7
tasklist /svc /fi “imagename eq SVCHOST.exe”
Alternatively you can create a txt file on your desktop..
tasklist /svc /fi “imagename eq SVCHOST.exe” > C:\users\%username%\Desktop\svchost.txt
You can see all handles using scvhost and their PID’s.
If you compare that with the results of Netstat -ano you can find out which SVCHost process is connected to a remote IP adresss by comparing the PID and doing a whois ip search on remote addresses listed in the netstat -ano results

Hi BV Isac from The Netherlands here. What happened to your wonderful pages in Black?
The wonderful tables where one could sort on Service or on Disables or on any essential proporty of the service?
Will said tables reappear on your new site?

Any change of seeing them reappear?

Isaac
PS are they perhaps still available on an undisclosed link?
