IE using 100% cpu when opening vide

All of the sudden my IE has started freezing when trying to view certain image links. Some work and some dont. IE cpu usage spikes to 100% and doesnt open the link, but is still navigatable. Oddly enough, when I try to restart the computer, windows shows that it is shutting down a window that cant be seen in the taskbar or through alt/tabbing. As if the link partially did open but is just looping? I have run a full virus scan and I do have all the latest XP updates as well as SP1 for IE6. I have tryed searching forums and havent seen anything that sounds like the same problem. Anyone have a guess? IE configuration is the same on this computer as three others I have which all are fine
