100% CPU utilization on svchost.exe or Automatic Updates service

We have upgraded from WSUS 2.0 to 3.0 SP1 and now have few Windows XP SP2 PCs that are extremely slow because the CPU is at 100% utilization running a process called "svchost.exe."  If I go into services and stop and disable the "Automatic Updates" service the CPU drop to normal almost instantly.  I tried forcing a reinstall of the Windows Update Agent.  After I enable the "Automatic Updates" service the machine works fine for a day, than after a reboot it goes back to 100% CPU utilization.  We need this fixed so we can get these computers updates.
