    Virus / Task Manager taking up 100% CPU?

    Hey guys, I need help with a virus. It's kinda weird cause I full scan with Kaspersky Internet Security 2010 and nothing shows up, but then I scan with AVG Free and this pops up:



    Then when I go to "Remove Unhealed Infections", it gives me a message about UAC needing to be on. So when I turn UAC on, I get:



    So basically, it can't be removed with AVG T__T.
    Also, I'm 99.9% sure this is related, my computer has been running REALLLLLLLY slowly for the past few days. It took me around 5 minutes just to post this message, because it takes forever to alt tab into desktop and type. Anyways, when I go into Task Manager (I originally assumed it was some random background process like firefox.exe or something), it always shows Task Manager as being the highest in CPU usage! Usually around 70-100% =/ but the memory usage is only around 2k lol. The weird part is, when I end task manager process, my computer runs fine for like 5 seconds, then it starts to lag again. Help please?

    Thanks in advance =)

    Task Manager uses a lot of resources... but try posting a HijackThis log and I'll try to walk you though what you've got. I'm not virus expert, just happen to be online.

    Check the following off to clear them:
    Code:
    O2 - BHO: (no name) - {5C255C8A-E604-49b4-9D64-90988571CECB} - (no file)
    And go to Tools, Clear Recent History, Everything, in Firefox. Then try running a scan, because it looks like AVG only picked up tracking cookies.

    If that doesn't work, go to the directory stated below and delete everything in it.
    Code:
    C:\Users\Nelson\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\zmetjz26.default\cookies.sqlite
    (I'm going based off your screenshot there)

    You have AVG and Kaspersky Internet Security installed.
    As a general rule, you should never use 2 antivirus at the same time. That could explain why your computer is slow because both antivirus are trying to protect your computer real time.

    yah probably this is the cause of ur extreme slow down. uninstall a single av(do it in safe mode,so it will be easier for u)or try some different av like norton,avast or avira which can remove the virus properly.using two av probably making u mad. try this as mentioned by ray

    Nope, I never had AVG. It used to be solely Kaspersky, and it still lagged. I only have AVG now because of the lagginess. Basically,no, running two anti-virus is not the reason for my problem XD.

    And I'm gonna run the AVG scan overnight

    Perhaps reinstalling firefox

    Try Avira, malwarebytes, superantispyware....
    But, perhaps just reinstalling firefox will delete your profile
    I would use revounistaller for the job....it might work

    From you HijackThis log, it seems like you have 2 main AV on your PC...Kaspersky and AVG..and both have running processes and services...no wonder your PC is lagging...seems like there might be conflicts between the 2...you should uninstall one of them That might help...
    They call me the mysterious one...
    my motto is...when it's hot, chill baby
