Help for infection

[Jovinho]

Hi experts, I got infected with malware moments ago, googled and downloaded Malwarebytes to try to remove it. After several scans and restarts, there are nothing to be detected anymore, however I suspect it is still there as my CPU usage is very high (60-99%).

Prior to the infection, I was trying to install CCleaner. Downloaded it from somewhere and the horror began straight after. Sensed sever lag and checked the task manager, there is a miner program running and it reappears everytime after I ended it. Malwarebytes solved it but I believe something is still there. Every now and then there are pop up to show Malwarebytes blocked something :

And while typing this, Avast just blocked another virus too : IDP Generic

Hello Jovinho and welcome to Malwarebytes, From your logs I can see your system is heavily infected, we can clean that up for you. First I can see that both Avast and Avira are installed and active, that will cause major problems for your system. You must remove/uninstall one of those asap. removeal instructions can be found at the following link: http://www.carrona.org/avuninst.html Next, Download attached fixlist.txt file (end of reply) and save it to the Desktop, or the folder you saved FRST into. "Do not open that file when running FRST fix" NOTE. It's important that both FRST and fixlist.txt are in the same location or the fix will not work. Open FRST and press the Fix button just once and wait. The tool will make a log on the Desktop (Fixlog.txt) or the folder it was ran from. Please post it to your reply. Next, Open Malwarebytes Anti-Malware.   On the Settings tab > Protection Scroll to and make sure the following are selected: Scan for Rootkits Scan within Archives   Scroll further to Potential Threat Protection make sure the following are set as follows: Potentially Unwanted Programs (PUP`s) set as :- Always detect PUP`s (recommended) Potentially Unwanted Modifications (PUM`s) set as :- Alwaysdetect PUM`s (recommended)   Click on the Scan make sure Threat Scan is selected, A Threat Scan will begin.
