thats a windows system process and it's normal to have numerous instances running.
But there IS a virus that uses that name and the one thats using all the recources
may be a virus. Do a virus check of search google for "scvhost.exe virus" and you'll
find a lot of info that should help you get rid of it. But if you have a virus check
app like norton or whatever it should find and fix it. there are also some free virus
apps you can download plus an online virus scan from trend micro.....
