Hello,
since 11pm there have been around 30 to 50 dllhost processes listed in the task manager.

before this, I was having problems with ads playing in the background with no visible cause
i cannot remember what happened next, but I do know my computer started to run very slowly making it near impossible to do anything

i restarted with safe mode and ran a scan that eliminated some malware on my computer, but it did not solve the problem

i dont even know if this is being caused by malware



UPDATE

malwarebytes is blocking f5f5dc.com

im not really sure what to do next, could someone please point me in the right direction?
