Something has been eating up alot of my CPU usage lately. It hangs around 0% when I'm not doing anything, but when I open up Firefox, or Winamp, or any program, it shoots up to around 60% and just hangs around there. I did a virus scan and a Spybot scan, but nothing came up. Here's my Hijackthis log:

Hi


Disable Spybot's TeaTimer to make sure it won't interfere with fixes. You can re-enable it when you're clean again:
Run Spybot-S&D in Advanced Mode
If it is not already set to do this, go to the Mode menu
select
Advanced Mode

On the left hand side, click on Tools
Then click on the Resident icon in the list
Uncheck
Resident TeaTimer
and OK any prompts.
Restart your computer


Disable Ad-Watch (http://www.lavasoftsupport.com/index.php?showtopic=19804)
