Hello peeps, i have a problem as i said it in the title. Whenever i start Opera, it also starts ''Com Surrogate - dllhost.exe'' and it consumes CPU like crazy! I made a antivirus scan with Malwarebytes and AVG but both come clean. Is there an any way to stop this happening? Because if i try another web browser it doesn't happen. Thank you!!!

Here, Opera doesn't seem to load dllhost.exe when starting. And even when that process is running, it doesn't seem to use that much CPU.

@huxley83 I'm inclined to think it's an Extension that's calling com surrogate - dllhost as I have it starting with my browser aswell but it's not using a ton of resources like it is with you
could you post the specs of the machine your having problems with
