java.exe is always running even though I'm not running any java programs. It uses a lot of memory and 50% CPU all the time. Every time i close it in taskmanager, it restarts again.
What can I do to fix this?

Download and install Process Monitor it should be able to tell you what is starting java.exe
When you know what is starting it you can (if you want) disable the offending applications autostart using something like Autoruns
If this does not work you may have a malware infection. To get rid of that follow the advice found in this question: What to do if my computer is infected by a virus or a malware?
If it still does not work ask a new question listing the things you have tried so far.
