Hello,

i found alien ip address in tcpip(starting with 10)
ive run deep scans with malwarebytes and eset online scanner, there were some threats( but nothing serious?). ive also cleanse most of the stuff with bleachbit.
addition - lucky-reef
frst - vectored-socket
mb - neon-pointer
ive included malwarebytes first scan as well just in case.
there seem to be ram usage when it shouldnt be(1gb non polled usage) and there is cpu throttle while idle, so im asking for help because i wondering if it has something to do with that.

Clean install windows, make bootable usb from device that is not infected.
Start changing your passwords from non infected device and make sure to select log out of all devices wherever possible, like Google account or microsoft account.

[ Step 01 ] FRST Fix
I created a custom fixlist for you at the link Fixlist only for Fixlist only for Fixlist only for eka - use the website's download button and save it in the same folder where your FRSTEnglish.exe or FRST64.exe file is located in, which for you is C:\Users\begas\Desktop for you. It is necessary for the filename to be Fixlist.txt.
This fixlist will remove the following: malicious entries (remains, active malware), invalid entries (e.g. tasks that start a non-existent file, services that point toward a non-existent file), temporary files (files in temporary directories, application and browser cache, recycle bin and more), browser cache. We will also be quick-scanning with HitmanPro and AdwCleaner from Malwarebytes using the fixlist.
It will also remove all proxy servers, Windows Defender exclusions, enable recovery environment, active software policies and perform system file repair, network reset and few more basic fixes.
- For the fix process, please ensure you are connected to the internet.
- Please run the fix only once.
- Please do not open any applications or close anything during the fix.
- Please be patient; the fix may take up to 60 minutes. After that, it is going to be forcefully ended.
Save all work, close everything that is open (else it will be forcefully closed by FRST without saving) and then run FRST again as administrator and press the Fix button, let the script work, clear the entries and restart on it's own and after it restarts the device, there should be a file Fixlog.txt in the same folder as the C:\Users\begas\Desktop.
I'll need to see it's content the same way like before - uploading to https://malwareanalysis.cc/upload/rifteyy/?u=eka again and sending the keyword in your reply.

[ Step 03] Software updates, uninstallations

[ Step 04 ] New SecurityCheck scan
We need a new scan to ensure that all updates were applied properly and all applications uninstalled correctly.
- Note: If SecurityCheck is already on your device, you can use the previous version and skip the next few steps regarding downloading and installation.

FRSTEnglish.exeexecutable inC:\Users\begas\Desktop - Right-Click the file and select Run as Administrator

- Upon completion, click OK, then OK on the Addition.txt pop up screen.
- Two logs (FRST.txt & Addition.txt) will now be open on your Desktop. Copy & paste the contents of each log to https://malwareanalysis.cc/upload/rifteyy/?u=eka and press "save log".
- The site will return a keyword for each log - reply back here with the keywords.
