Program running in background for minutes preventing other use

Hello Helmut. If you press CTRL + ALT + DEL on your keyboard and then select Task Manager, every program currently running on your computer will be listed. The network/Internet usage will be displayed next to each of these programs. This should help you to see which programs are using your network connection frequently.

Many Thanks

Hi, I am new here.
When connecting to the internet a backround program seems to run for minuites (green light stays on)  preventing other use. Seems like a waste of time. AVG PC Tune up did not fix this. Is there some way to find out which program is running in the background and getting rid of it?  I checked that AVG scanning or updating is not on at these times.
Any advice?.
