Hello,
As soon as I turn on my PC, all the other PCs in the house start to lag in terms of internet, as if I'm massively draining the connection, yet I'm hardly doing anything, just browsing social media, etc...
Could it be possible that some software is draining the connection in the background? I don't see anything special in the task manager, and MalwareBytes doesn't find anything... What should I do?
Thank you.

There are a few issues on your PC, but the cause is BitTorrent that starts up when the PC boots and takes your bandwidth!

You haven't confirmed the uninstallation of BitTorrent and Cacaoweb, nor for QuickTime!
There are only 2 small things left to finish everything up.

I told you what was draining your connection,
we cleaned the PC,
I don't know what more we can do!
What were you expecting?

I can disinfect the PC, improve the performance of a PC, but I can't fix your bandwidth issue!
How many PCs are connected to your box?

So this is not specific to your PC, but to your bandwidth!
Know that the bandwidth is shared for your connection (the more devices connected, the slower it will be), the most recent and high-performance equipment takes priority over the others!
