BitMiner disguised as svchost.exe, uses up to 25 % CPU, usually 2 processes but now 1

So it's been a while since i have to deal with this annoying process, it's a miner virus, i don't realize it at first since when i opened up task manager, the process ends itself automatically, i can see like a splitsecond that the cpu usage rises, then drops, and stays low while i open task manager, my performance especially in gaming drops dramatically, i then tried ASC 11, and there's indeed a process called "Host Process for Windows Services" there's 2 of them, eating up each 25% cpu, but now it's only one, today. I tried terminating the process on ProcessHacker, but i feel like something still holds up my cpu, still lagging while gaming. I tried to use Windows Performance Recorder, i tried to track down the services, but it leads to nowhere, i only found either Idle or svchost itself.

Running it on another one may cause damage and render the system unstable.

Download attached fixlist.txt file and save it to the Desktop:

Both files, FRST and fixlist.txt have to be in the same location or the fix will not work!

  • Right-click on
    FRST.gif
    icon and select
    RunAsAdmin.jpg
    Run as Administrator to start the tool.
    (XP users click run after receipt of Windows Security Warning - Open File).
  • Press the Fix button just once and wait.
  • If for some reason the tool needs a restart, please make sure you let the system restart normally. After that let the tool complete its run.
  • When finishes FRST will generate a log on the Desktop, called Fixlog.txt.

Please attach it to your reply.
