    Attached are the requested logs. Antimalware bytes was run first, which is what prompted the rest of the scans. According to comcast I've used 300 gb of data in 3 weeks...and they think it's likely a virus on my end.

    Thanks for your help.

    There really isn't anything major in your logs! Especially not something that would cause a problem you are describing. Perhaps it is how you are using your PC. You appear to be a big game user ( many games and Steam too - potentially large downloads of games and or updates. Plus online gaming can use a lot. ) Also other things noted in your logs that can be large users of bandwidth

    Thanks Chas, I honestly don't play that much anymore or stream much more than a couple hours a month at most. I used to game a lot until I got married :) I appreciate you taking a look. It's possible its one of the other pc's in the house I haven't checked.

    My typical usage is around 20 gbs. A little higher with MLB season (Comcast showed 32 gbs for April), but I've been out of town some this month and not on enough to really justify anywhere near 300 gbs. Steam for instance is usually off, and I really only play League of Legends when I have a few minutes.

    In other words, my usage hasn't jumped on those programs by 10 times what I normally average.
    I don't use a bit torrent either. Any chance any of these programs would draw that much consumption on idle?

    Thanks again!

    Okay then check the other PCs on your network. Also if you have wireless access setup, make sure that it is properly protected/encrypted so you can be sure that no one outside your netwok is accessing. Even consider changing the password/key and then update all devices in are supposed to be allowed access. This would help stop anyone that may be gaining access now that should not be. 32 Gb is lot and would be typically of someone doing lots of torrent download or video download....etc.
