My Norton keeps popping up with a message of heavy usage warning of com surrogate. I look in the task manager and I see like 10 dllhost.ext 32 com surrogate using all my memory which is causing lag. I am able to end process but they reopen. I installed malewarebytes and it found like 60 files and deleted them but I still have this issue. Norton didn't find anything. I do remember Norton finding and blocking a file and soon after I'm sure this problem started. I know enough to be dangerous please be kind. Thank you for any help you have to offer. my typing sucks since this things is being so bad. sorry.

If you think you are infected please post your problem here http://malwaretips.com/forums/malware-removal-assistance.10/
I think once you are back up and running normally we could give you a few suggestions on beefing up your config
one of the most important things is a backup solution but wait on that until you are 100% sure your PC is clean
