CPU 100% - how to solve?

Hello!


Yesterday I tried to install Java, but after finishing I realised that my computer was running very slow and my CPU was 100 % full.
I thought that Java was the problem and I uninstalled it, but the problem didn't dissapear.

Then I thought it might be a virus, so I made a scan with Avast and it found some viruses in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Secure\Icons\SecureIconsProvider.dll
and
C:\ProgramData\lePluginServices\PluginService.exe

I couldn't find the first location, I also tried entering and scanning from the safe mode, but I think tht I got rid of the second virus, because I scanned with Malwarebytes, too and that folder disappeared.
I also deleted all the files from the Icons folder, but the problem persists.

I also made several scans with Adwcleaner, TDSS Killer and Kaspersky and I removed some viruses, but the CPU is still 90-100%.


In TaskManger I can see that every time I open my computer, one or two processes have about 40-50 %. Sometimes is taskhost.exe, but it could also be AthBtTray.exe, explorer.exe. I should mention that yesterday the CPU was max 30-50% full, but now it is full since the first boot of the laptop. Also, in safe mode is works fine.

What should I do? How to get rid of this virus? I can't work with the CPU full.

thank you! :)
