[REDACTED]

Hi
I was Working With Free Avast Antivirus And Everything Working Fine
Now I Just Buy A Key For Avast Antivirus Internet Security 2016
Thr Proplem Is The Program Take 20/30% From My Cpu Usage So What Can I Do ?

The first thing that will make a difference is AIS has a "Firewall" which will be monitoring all traffic all the time and the FREE version does not. This will use more system resources.
Make sure you do not have any other 'Security software' installed that may be conflicting with your Avast Internet Security.

I was Working With bitdefender total security 2015 for a year and nothing like that happen
and avast is the only security program in my pc

Please stick to conventional text, Red isn't great for contrast and many people are Red, Green colour blind.

Left justified is also easier to read.

Avast doesn't just scan of its own volition, there has to be some activity that warrants its scanning.
What are you doing when this activity is happening ?

When you are seeing this avast CPU activity, is your avast tray icon rotating ?
AvastUI > Settings > General - enable the 'Animate the icon when scanning.'

Ensure that you have fully removed all remnants of your previous AV.

The icon animation is turned off by default in the current version.

I think DavidR touched on a "crucial" point.
Being as you have had another AV installed (BitDefender) and unless it was properly (thoroughly) removed/Uninstalled it is more then likely, that there are Remnants left from Bitdefender (especially) in the Registry and Program Data Folders that can/could be causing some kind of conflict.
