I made a shocking discovery- well to me today.
I have an unusually low amount of processes running. I normally have like... over 30. Can't even find svchost.exe. Picture is here. I ran full scans with Avast antivirus Pro and Comodo Antivirus, none which found anything.

Honestly, if you don't know what changes the virus did to your system and AV's / anti-spyware software can't even detect it. I would just backup your important files and just format.
Well unless you know what virus it is and you can google it up and find out what changes it does and how to completely remove it. Because most likely it has done more damage than you know right now.

processes are hidden, svchost is running. if you want to see it, check the "show processes from all users"

well i doubted that svchost.exe wasn't running since you wouldn't be able to do much of anything without it. Also, MS has hidden these so nobody tampers or accidentally ends the processes as they are vital to keep your system running.
