How many copies of those programs should be running?

To understand svchost a bit, open a command prompt window and type

tasklist /svc

That will show what things are running "inside" each svchost.

AshWeb might be part of Avast. Check your Avast package and see
if the executable for that is there. If it appears legitimate,
you'd have to ask in an Avast forum, as to how many of them
would be appropriate.
