If you have two anti-viruses on this computer then it's already very unstable let alone slow.
One of the basic rules with computers is to have only one anti-virus program however you can have several (legit) spyware programs running on your computer. If you have McAfee and Avast get rid of one.

Summary: I have had the same problem with one of my PC slowing down.... It's caused by a file installing those processes... make sure you verify the "startup" and see if a file named microsoftupdate is there.....
