Possible Trojan?

[mushies1337]

In my task manager, I've been getting processes called "Gsqsglkrq.exe".

My CPU usage has been erratic and my fans keep blazing occasionally while doing nothing.

Anybody know about this process and what it does? Its description says, "Google Chrome" but I don't believe that.

Kill the Processes and Run your Virus Scanning Software

I use Norton 360 and load up MalwareBytes when I need to.

Ewwwww,

It's Bloatware

Have any of you actually encountered this process before?

I'm still curious what it does, google yields nothing. D:

Also, I ran a scan with Search and Destroy and nothing suspicious came up except a few tracking cookies.

[mushies1337]

Alright, looks like I was being overly suspicious. Thank you all, though!

No way it is chrome. Try running scans with your AV and a few other programs that remove malware.

 

I recommend that you also use this program, removes temp files like intelligent cache scanning and application files.

CCleaner is a one step process though, you should probably scan and view your threats and try eliminating them through safe mode. Also

manually check your local and roaming folders where your temp files are also stored. I'd check regedit too just to be safe.
