Svchost.exe is the Windows service host, you need this :)

Looks like it's the AVG antivirus acting up. How much free space do you
have on the drives?

The ones generating most entries are:

AVGrsa.exe - presume a scan must be running even if I can't find or stop
it (scan settings are set to 'basic' for minimal interference when machine
is busy)

BackupNowEZ - my backup program which I have to use as the external drive
is over 2TB so M$ backup won't work, in theory (hah!) this is disabled
temporarily - I think! no hard disk activity even though the process is
generating a lot of entries.

svchost.exe (not sure what this is)

monitor.exe (less than the other three)

There are lots more processes listed, but very few entries compared to
these.

Looks like it's the anti-virus but what is it up to since it's on minimum
settings and shouldn't be running at this time of day anyway (it's normally
set to run overnight and not to run at startup if a scan has been missed)

Okay, one more. Download and run the "Process monitor" tool from MS
and check if any application is generating lots of entries. This might
be a somewhat painful process on a thrashing machine, though.
