Hi NoOneJK,

I am Dave, an Independent Advisor, I will help you with this.

Rest assured it is perfectly normal to have 3 or more versions of the Com Surrogate process running in Task Manager, that is just a host process in Windows that DLL's run on and this is not an indication of malware on your PC.
