Install Process Explorer.
When the CPU utlization is high, invoke process explorerer to find out which process uses most of the CPU resource

Are you using IE7? This can happen with the new version. You might consider uninstalling it. It will revert back to IE6. Other than that, I don't have an answer.

you need to uninstall and reinstall IE or maybe download another browser which is better like mozilla/firefox @ www.firefox.com...try that

if you have an old cpu, like pentium 3 or amd duron, you need a new one.
