That sounds like a classic case of malware or adware! Fake processes like that can be a nightmare, especially when they mimic trusted programs like Chrome. It’s great you found a solution, but for anyone facing similar issues, I recommend learning about how URL blacklisting works and how tools like Avast can protect against these threats. Check out this article for more info: https://gridinsoft.com/blogs/url-blacklist-avast/. Staying vigilant about suspicious activity in Task Manager is always a smart move!
