I don't know why people are saying a CPU is supposed to run at 100% usage while running a scan because that's not true and doesn't seem right. The 7600U definitely isn't the best CPU in the world, so high CPU usage should be somewhat expected. But 100%? Don't know about that.
As for software itself, I highly recommend HWMonitor for monitoring temps, and ESET NOD32 for your anti-virus.
For example, right now I'm currently running a full system scan using ESET. I have Chrome with 8 tabs (including a stream on Twitch), Discord, Steam, Winamp, and Skype all open. My CPU usage is bouncing between 25-35% usage.
Laptops can most definitely be problematic in regards to temperatures. Download HWMonitor and check what your temps are when idle and under load. You should definitely take a can of compressed air and blow out as much gunk as you can. If your temps are running high on idle or even under load, you should consider a laptop cooling pad. They're generally pretty cheap.
