Mysterious CPU Usage

[kimberleeey]

My computer's been a little bit on the slow side lately, but I've noticed that when task manager is open the CPU usage is at a typical 5-13%, but when it's closed it skyrockets to 65-100%. I've already gotten rid of that antivirus.net thing, but I don't want to remove anything else unless I know for sure what it is, so ANY help would be appreciated. Much thanks.

Here's the log:

Hi and welcome to Malwarebytes.

Please update MBAM, run a Quick Scan, and post its log.

Next, download DDS by sUBs and save it to your Desktop.

Double-click on the DDS icon and let the scan run. When it has run two logs will be produced, please post DDS.txt directly into your reply.

Next, please run the PCPitstop Full Tests here (NOT the PCMatic scan or any other scan; simply register with the box on the left and you will be taken to the Full Tests/Overdrive Test). When the tests are complete, a results page will pop up. Copy and paste the URL of the Results screen and post it here for me.
