Question on ccSvcHst.exe using 99% of CPU

Like other people I have been having a problem with ccSvcHst.exe using basically all of my cpu. For some reason I have two ccSvcHst processes runnning, one under the username System, the other on under my username. Because of this I suspect my problem might be as described below.

 

One member suggested here "If you are using NIS 2009 ONLY, then please go to Windows Add-Remove Programs and check if you see Symantec LIve Update and / or Live Update Notifier. These items are not needed by NIS 2009 and if present should be uninstalled; but uninstall ONLY if you use NO OTHER NORTON PRODUCTS."

 

I checked Windows Add-Remove Programs and itsays I have LiveUpdate 3.2 installed, and LiveUpdate Notice installed. Are either of these safe to remove if I am only running NIS 2009?
