Scanned for malware lately? Is some antiviral or spyware scan running? Is Windows Indexing Service (indexes the hard drive for faster searches) running?
start>run
type in: msconfig
click ok
click startup tab
uncheck everything except items related to your firewall, antiviral software, mouse, video. Exit and reboot. Put check in "Don't show this again" box that appears when you reboot. Is that better?

Its not actually a process, its telling you you have 99% FREE processor. "Percentage of time processor is Idle"
The key word is "Idle" or doing nothing.
So this is a good thing, nothing to worry about.
