i downloaded a program and ran it but then i found out the program made my pc mine for bitcoins, is there anyway to track it down? (like the ip and the place the file could be on my pc) i have found what mines the bitcoins in my task manager.
 
Solution
Run a virus scan, offline is usually best, download a rescue disk and scan the PC with it, also Malwarebytes may find the virus. You can turn on logging on the router and see what the PC tries to connect to.
