    High CPU usage


    I am getting about 50-70% CPU usage while using firefox. Sometimes it goes down and sometimes it goes
    insanely high. I checked processes in task manager but it doesn't seem that I have any processes that can
    use that much CPU. I also checked for viruses with malwarebytes in safe mode deleted all of them but still I
    get this much CPU usage.
    I will attach a screenshot of processes.

    That is insane.. I have 72 processes and only use 3 % of my cpu . you have a utorrent exe process running and some high svchost exe processes.. Your Firefox is not that high.. I have had higher than that.. not sure what your issue is.. but.. it is not firefox doing it.

    I think it is not a hardware issue because in safe mode it is okay. 3-5%
    Maybe some kind of driver or a ninja virus is causing this...

    Yeah it is fast when I run it in safe mode, but with this CPU usage on normal mode it is slow like I am running it on a toaster... -_-
