Hard Drives: C: 446 GB (395 GB Free) D: 19 GB (2 GB Free) Īntivirus: Microsoft Security Essentials, Enabled and UpdatedĪs an update. Graphics Card: Intel(R) HD Graphics 3000, 1804 Mb Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-2370M CPU 2.40GHz, Intel64 Family 6 Model 42 Stepping 7 OS Version: Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium, Service Pack 1, 64 bit Tech Support Guy System Info Utility version 1.0.0.4 Rebooted on Safe Mode and backed my files up and I just ran a disk scan, I dont know if it found anything, though. And AdwCleaner is coming up with this same PUP once again. Cleaned it, reboot the computer was nice and quiet for like 15 minutes before the fans ramped right back up with the CPU going to 100%. I just ran AdwCleaner, and it popped up with 3 results, and. I can surf the web during this high period, with some lag, but pages load. I've let the computer run with the fan at the high CPU thinking maybe its Windows update, but having it go for an hour or more seems excessive.

Now I'm experiencing the same thing again, and the symptoms come and go, there will be days were it runs hard, than days where it is quiet as a cat. I had someone help me, but after a few scans, the result was a clean bill of health and that I should switch over to FireFox, which I did.

Hello, I posted in malware removal a week or two earlier, for a problem that my laptop was running extra hard, 100% CPU usage, right on start up, full battery just draining, fan's running non-stop.
