I've got a big problem with my computer. My CPU usage is almost always at 100% from opening up just 1 program. Well...sorta. If I open up IE6, it stays at a normal level. If I open up 2 windows, it immediately jumps up to 100% and stays there, so it stops me from even closing the windows. I can keep opening new windows, though, although it'll go really slow. I ran Spybot 1.2, adaware and Norton Anti-Virus, but none of them seemed to find anything. How can I fix my computer so that my CPU usage isn't so high? I can't really do anything with it right now.
