Service Host (svchost.exe) Using 99% CPU

Hey guys-

I know this question has been asked for other Windows OS's, but none of their fixes apply on Windows 8.

When I log in, everything is fine, everything is very smooth and even faster than when I used Windows 7, but after a few minutes my CPU becomes locked at ~99%, mostly because of svchost.

As it appears on Task Manager, the process is Service Host (No Impersonation). The sub-processes are Function Discovery Resource Publication, SSDP Recovery, Time Broker, and UPnP Device Host. I tried several fixes that worked in XP or 7, but they either can't be used in 8 or detect nothing is wrong.

This is the only thing that makes me dislike 8 so far, a fix would be fantastic.
