    First update your current antivirus, then scan the whole pc. If you still have problem then try Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware. This application automatically updates the list of malware and can be programmed to analyze the PC at a specific time. Malwarebytes Anti-Malware includes FileASSASSIN, which is a tool that ensures the removal of any infected files.

    Re: High internet usage problem

    there are a number of programs that updates themselves constantly,
    even windows has its automatic updates

    so disable automatic update on every program u use(xcept antivirus maybe)
    and be sure to disable windows automatic updates

    if u cant find any, just post a pic of ur task manager showing all the processes, and m sure we can find something

    Re: High internet usage problem

    well i dont know much about that ....i have already disabled windows updates...and AVG updates as well....
    still its same problem....

    and btw it has boiled down to a file " wwwpos32.exe" .it is located in startup and when i tried to disable it using msconfig,it didnt have any effect and it was enabled automatically..i feel this is the culprit....I tried to delete it manually but no use...AVG,MBAM and hijackthis have also failed.....

    plz help

    Re: High internet usage problem

    then it is a virus/trojan then

    well, for that, i can recommend u one software, trojan remover
    download it and run the main scan which comes at the front

    File menu scan is useless...
    i can give u just this suggestion...try it
