Recently, I was faced with a rather unpleasant situation. My laptop began to slow down very much, which did not give me the opportunity to work normally with it. For a long time I could not discover the true problem. The system monitor constantly shows that the CPU is loaded at one hundred percent. I already closed almost all applications in the tray, left one desktop and waited up to half an hour. The load on the rock didn't even drop.
From desperation, I didn't know what to do. I wanted to reinstall the operating system. However, before that, he went to a neighbor and began to rummage on the Internet. Reviewed many posts on this topic.
Many users have described similar syndromes. At the same time, it was said that the svchost process loads the processor. I looked at mine and found that it was he who pulled the entire resource of the laptop. And this process was not alone. More than a dozen tasks of the same name were displayed in the task manager. Everything indicated that my car had caught a virus somewhere.
In general, there is a large amount of enemy software, because of which the svchostexe process loads the processor. I will tell you specifically about mycase. Consider that my creation is only for informational purposes and is by no means the ultimate truth. If you doubt your strengths or abilities, it is better to entrust this matter to specialists. They will definitely fix your computer.
So, I started looking for the reason why my svchostexe loads the system. It turned out that the system was infected with a modified Trojan. I had GCD installed, which was still able to detect the threat, but could not do anything about it. I kept getting a message that cleaning was not possible.
After that, this message crashed every time the computer was started. At the end there was already the next picture. The task manager showed two svchost processes. Loads the processor each of them equally, fifty percent of the resource for each.
With the help of one free application from Microsoft, called Process Explorer, you can see what these processes are, as well as what exactly they belong to. At its core, this is a kind of advanced manager of your tasks. In my situation, svchost loads the processor, but is in its place. This suggests that you need to look for enemy software in the startup area. A special application for removing Trojans helped me with this. It did its job and found some filth in my registry.
The rootkit agent was in the drivers folder, which was in the System32 directory,which, in turn, was in the Windows system directory. Apart from this rubbish, nothing else could be found. I knew that there might be traces left, so I launched Dr. Web's utility and performed a full scan of the device.
She also managed to detect a Trojan in the startup folder. Once the procedure was completed, I decided to clean the laptop from temporary files. I did it manually, but you can use the Kaspersky utility called AVZ. If you see svchost hogging the CPU, you know what to do.
