Close IE.
Go Start>All Programs>Accessories>System Tools, and click on Internet Explorer (no add-ons). Same high CPU usage?

It looks like some add-on, or toolbar is doing this.
Toolbars (Google, Yahoo) are primary suspects.
In IE, got Tools>Internet Options>advanced tab, and click Reset button. That will return IE to its original settings.
Restart computer.
