Hi people
I had to format my hard disc a while ago and since then internet.exe starts taking higher levels of CPU until it totally freezes the computer.
I do not use internet explorer at all as I use Mozilla.
 
there should be no internet.exe....thats spyware of some sort. now you do have IEXPLORER.EXE if thats what you meant
 
yes sorry but its explorer.exe with no i. if I end task I end up only with the desktop without toolbar or anything
 
I have because I thought it was a virus but it comes back totally clean not even spyware or anything I will post anyway as I run a full system scan everyday
