I am wondering if anyone has seen this.... all the sudden my explorer.exe is at 100% and seems like it's not stoping. I have checked out some other places about this and it does seem to happen on other comptuers too... anyone know why this is? Usually I just reboot of course it goes away.. it's not really a big deal... but still would like to know why it does this....

usually i find if a program crashes that u might not be aware of, the cpu goes flat out till u close that program down in the "processes" window under "windows task manager"
