A subject "Urgent Help" tells us nothing. Everyone who posts for help things it's urgent! Better to give a descriptive subject. Your subject could be: System Rebooting

But there isn't enough information to give you any help. The fact that you're running BitTorrent in itself can cause problems.

Pleas see the following. Follow the steps, then attach your logs. We will review them and try to find the problem:

You might start with which OS you are running and you should check the box that says "show processes from all users" on the processes tab of your task manager as there is NO WAY those are the only processes running.

I think you should download MalwareBytes' scanner and run it (while disconnected from your network) and see what it reveals.

Yes, the OS is very important:
