This is brilliant! Windows users are seriously in need of an authoritative source for information like that. Especially since the URL you mentioned looks just like a phishing site that pretends to be Microsoft and distributes spyware.
Search for any common Windows service or .dll filename, and you'll get dozens of forum threads where people who have no idea what they're talking about try to figure out whether it's a normal part of the OS or the worst virus ever. These are the same people who open Task Manager every day and blindly kill everything that they don't recognize. (Doing so does tend to make Windows run faster, which reinforces the impression that svchost.exe was indeed a virus.)
