Hello

I have a weird problem tht i cant solve .. I scanned the pc using kaspersky and adaware and nothing is found .. i guess its something more complicated

Whenever i use internet explorer 7 my pc slows down and my cpu usage just rise to 100% but tht happens often when i play a flash game like poker on facebook or when i watch a video on youtube it also happens when i use the Windows search feature .. thts wht i have noticed till now.. Other stuff like normal games works well though

Anyway .. i made lots of scans and posted lots of logs on the malware section And they told me its not a malware isse and tht i should seek help here

launch task manager again...click on performance tab....minimize the window...then do whatever you normally do but when you feel it bog down...bring the task manager window up again and get a screenshot and post it for us ...

don't see any anti virus running on your system...you are probably infected...
Please go to the malware forum Start HERE....

That will help you clean up 80 percent of all problems by yourself. If at the end of the process you are still having difficulty (and you may not be) then start a new topic in the MALWARE FORUM forum here...

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

So, you're saying, that IE high CPU usage happens only, when playing games, or videos?
