Explorer.exe high CPU usage, probably not malware

[Joaquim]

Just to leave it clear, I'll leave the description of each infection here:
(I used BitDefender Rescue CD that uses ubuntu environment)

audioses.dll is infected with Gen:Application.Heur2.WdW@baaaaaaab

then there is other 4
couple of old emails with Gen:Trojan.Downloader.imGfaWU4Xef and Gen:Trojan.Heur.DP.bmGfaq!l@U (files: 'elvispresley0027674.avi outlook.zip' and 'dsc11072013.avi.zip')

avast's 'gvma64.dat' with Gen:Trojan.Heur.Tp.bmW@bCZc7ih
qbittorrent.exe with Gen:Variant.Jaik.14304

Ask Julio to move it for you, I'm sure he wouldn't mind doing so.
Also seems like carnage x has something in mind here:

I haven't tried this but install it in your chrome browser, give it about 30 minutes and see what happens.
Check the task manager as well to see what it will do or won't do.

Hi!

I believe the problem is gone. Explorer.exe's level are at normal levels.
Apparently neither Malwarebytes, nor SuperAntiSpyware could identify the malware with OS still running.


Thank you all for helping me.

I believe the thread should be moved to Malware and Trojan.

Hi. I personally think you will be just fine. If you think that you need @Broni to check you out, I would open another thread in the malware section. He has lots of experience.

Had the same problem. Constant usage of Internet Explorer around 16%. Tried the Bitdefender rescue CD but would not boot on my laptop.
Used then MalwareBytes Free 3.7.1, which found some malware and is sorted now.

A list of the items in quarantine now.
