dllhost.exe Consuming All Physical Memory

I need a solution

I recently noticed that occasionally my CPU meter started reading that my RAM was at 90% and higher. At this point obviously my computer is running slower than mollases. Come to find out after little digging When I open th windows task manager i have a "dllhost.exe" file that is in the millions. So I did some research and come to find out dllhost.exe is a natural .exe file that runs in windows. But nowhere does it say that its supposed to be in the millions of kb. So i took caution when ending the process. As soon as i ended it my computer started running perfectly normal again. But it just keeps restarting itself so often. 

I am pretty sure i have a virus but Symantec isnt finding im sure because of the fact that its hiding itself under a file thats supposed to be there. If anybody could help or has any advice that would be greatly appreciated.
