Solved Windows Process Manager (32-Bit) Virus

[zb123]

I recently clicked on some sort of ad when installing a program and found that I had a virus that kept opening pop-ups. I fixed this, but have now noticed an app running in task manager called Windows Process Manager (32-bit). I have tried opening the file location but it says Access Denied. I assume it is some sort of spyware and is taking almost one gig of RAM. Pls help!
Thanks,
Zach

The computer behaves normally but the process can be seen in task manager and takes up lots of ram and i am concerned it is a spyware of sorts.
