What is the process name that is taking up the cpu ?
If it is Iexplore and you are not on the net then there may be a problem
Here's all the processes that are taking about CPU Usage:
dwm.exe (I think that's what it's called, but it has something to do with the desktop)
Whatever Avast's .exe is (I forgot)
wisptis.exe (I checked it's properties and it says it's my Bamboo Tablet, my tablet has been having errors apparently, but it works fine)
csrss.exe (Sometimes this takes up about "2 CPU", I'm not sure what this is)
ashDisp.exe (This looks like it's the Avast process though)
SynTPHelper (Or something that's description is "Synaptics...")
winlogon.exe
taskeng.exe (This takes up the most CPU)
explorer.exe (It's not "iexplorer.exe" though, this can take up some CPU though too)
There may be more and some of these may not be taking up CPU at all, I just maybe accidentally listed the wrong ones, but I'm pretty sure that list is accurate.
Most of them don't take up to much CPU, but the taskeng.exe and explorer.exe (I think the explorer does) takes up the most I think...
Just so you guys know, so far I haven't had any problems with my computer except my "Recent Items"'s box is now lower than it used to be, but I'm pretty sure that's because I updated Windows.
Thanks!
EDIT: I just checked and seen that iexplorer.exe and explorer.exe is pretty much the same thing... Should I be worried?
EDIT 2: Quick question: If you don't transfer files/programs (I've never really transferred a program from one computer to the other) but you share the same network as another computer, you can get a virus/malware from using the same network right? But what if one of the computers are turned off and not connected to the network, can you still get malware from it?
I also checked the "explorer.exe" does take up 2-6 CPU Usage usually. But sometimes it's at 0 CPU Usage.
I hope everything is okay.
Oh, but here's some good news. My CPU Usage has been lower recently. Before about half the time (or more) my CPU Usage was from 50%-100%, but now about 70% of the time it's at 5%-20%.
