CPU Load 85% or more all the time, if I go to window task manager and unload iexsplore.exe. the load is down to 2-5%. In about 10 sec. the program reloads and my load is back to 85% or more. Do I need this program ? How can I unload it for good.

I'd say that's Internet Explorer- the web browser.
1) You could try running the install for the newest Internet Explorer- see if there might be a glitch with yours?
2) You could go to "Control Panel"- & on the lefthand side click:
"Set program access & defaults"-
change to another browser completely, such as Opera, Mozilla, etc...
3) Another great link:
www.blackviper.com
lefthand side, about halfway down: click on "Windows XP services" to see what you can set to manual or disable to free extra CPU cycles. I shut off 22!
Hope this helps. Rerunning the IE install would be very quick & you'd know if it helped right away.
