Windows 2000 Pro + Service Pack 2:
Services.exe shoots up to 100% CPU usage without fail every 2 hours at 5 minutes to the hour (i.e. 6:55, 8:55) and makes everything slow to a halt for 55 seconds.

Perhaps the virus and spyware detection are the actual problems... try turning them off for a while?
