another really good site is http://www.answersthatwork.com/
go to 'task list' and search on the different processes that are running on your pc, like sychost (as you mentioned above...
for example:
Yahoo! Messenger. YPAGER shows up in the Task List when you either have Yahoo! Messenger open, or you have it running in the System Tray. It will show up as YMSGR_TRAY in Windows 9x/ME and YPAGER in Windows NT4/2000/XP/2003.
Recommendation :
Essential if you use Yahoo! Messenger since this task is... Yahoo Messenger ! If you do not use Yahoo! Messenger but find that YPAGER is running every time you start your PC, then de-install it via the "Add/Remove Programs" icon in the Control Panel.
