i've got norton antivirus completely up to date and adaware se and avast antivirus all up to date and they've found no viruses, if this svchost thing is a virus has it rendered my antivirus useless? i mean they do find viruses and tracking cookies so it's not like i know my antivirus is dead but...hell i just wanna know...what is svchost.exe and why is there about 10 instances of it running? ( i was browsing through my running processes list and saw svchost.exe so that's how i know i got 10 instances of it running.)

NO, the SVCHOST.EXE is a normal and essential windows process. It acts a a host for a collection of vital services that run on your computer. Its designed for efficiency by taking many process and running them under a single executive process. You may have multiple one running due to multiple groups of processes running. You should not delete this process. However, you can limit the need for it to load by cutting down on the number of programs and processes your computer needs. Hope this helps!
