Lately, at random times, IE 6 will cause my CPU usage to jump to 100% and thus slow down my machine considerably. Oddly enough, the only other program that does this is the Netscape 6 browser. Any other internet applicaiton I have (mIRC, AIM, Morpheus, etc.) does not cause the CPU usage to jump sky high, only IE and Netscape. Is there ay reason they would be doing this?
The only thing I have updated recently is the Microsoft IE security patch for 2/11/02. I also have disabled my McAfee Firewall and gone back to the stand WinXP Professional firewall, but, this did nothing to solve the problem.
Any help is appreciated.
