Hey, I'm new into this community, i can basic stuff about computers, but when it comes to viruses and protection, i can bearly anything, i have Malwarebytes installed and everything, but I'm just wondering if anything is wrong with my pc, it isn't slow or anything, just like normal, but i have heard that viruses today are strongly undetected by the anti-virus, I'm not the guy who downloads files from unknowns sites,



ill leave some pictures of my task manager, ill use procceshacker, and you guys maybe can see something that isn't normal?



here's the procceshacker, i see a lot of "svhost" is that normal? View: https://imgur.com/a/W3u6x0U

svhost is a normal Windows process and many applications use it, however, it is also a key target for malware and other malicious infections.

The only way really to know the difference is to run a reliable, up to date, with the up to date part being the key, malware and virus scanner. Windows defender does a good job of this, but Malwarebytes and Bit defender are good as well. Whatever you choose, just make sure it's definitions are up to date.

Then, if you are not convinced, run a "second opinion" scanner like Hitman Pro or Rogue killer, to find things normal scanners tend to not find.
