I have a computer outside the network that becomes very slow I checked the task manager and found the process called system using 90% of the CPU? If any one can help me resolve this problem I will be very grateful
 
the process "system" run by the system is a ligitimate process that needs to be running.

however, "system.exe" is a net controller trojan and should be removed.

i have never had this but either a virus checker or an adware program such as spybot should get rid of this for you.
