Okay, I got a few things on my mind!
1 - I uninstalled Avast. Yup.
Downloaded Malwarebytes in its place, did a scan, found 10 things quickly. They're all gone now!
The computer got faster after eliminating Avast, and I can report that the base "Memory" usage was 44% with Avast, and base "CPU" usage was about 6%.
Now the "CPU" usage is 0% and the "Memory" usage is at 26% as a base. That was 18% of the "Memory" being used by Avast!!!
2 - I figured out how to make my laptop into a mobile Hotspot. Now I can connect my iPod Touch to it and listen to Pandora! Or check the weather!!!
....Though I could already to that with my laptop
Oh well, at least I learned something new.
