ccSvcHst.exe soars to 100% CPU useage

My home PC is affected, and reduced to boat anchor status as long as I have this problem.

 

. I'm writing this from my laptop.

 

Just after installing 2009, my ccSvcHst.exe gobbles up 100% of CPU.

The PC is rendered useless at this point. I cannot contact Symantec because nothing works.

I cannot stop the process, access denied. My 2009 has turned my PC into a doorstop.

 

I know I can get it back, but how? How? I'm thinking of deinstalling 2009, then re-installing 2008, but not sure of the steps to get there.

2008 was a download. Hope I kept the credentials somewhere...

 

Maybe I will wait for some suggestions from the board.
