My computer has recently started to run at a seemingly very high CPU load, and is also running fairly hot... My RAM is consistently over 60% and my fan kicks on to a super high speed about every 10 minutes.

Here is a list of running proccess on my computer
Microsoft Windows [Version 6.0.6002]

Any idea why these processes are running so high, or is there something I could to maybe help reduce the RAM load?

I don't see anything unusual.
System Idle Process (CPU not used) is listed at 92.31%, which is perfectly normal.

Thats interesting...
I unloaded eset and outpost and loaded comodo firewall/AV, and my computer seems to be running much better and at a lower load. which is nice. (side note:: sidebar was running for the simple fact it has performance monitoring tools on it, otherwise it never is running).

Good news then
