emule probably is running tracking software that it didn't tell you about during the install, like many free applications. Lzexpand is used to decompress files compressed by Microsoft's compress.exe utility, which could be anything but may be something like emule trying to make IE load a tracking module, or emule could be interfereing with a normal thing that IE does.

You'll probably be better off posting on the forums at the emule site about this. It is obviously a problem with that software. In fact I just looked and there are several threads about this problem.
