Am using WIn2k Professional , in that when i access a a secured site using https// i noticed that my system was going very slow. i had other applications like outlook & word opened. when i went to TASK MANAGER to check the CPU usage. i found that IExplorer was taking 100% of CPU time.

is this causing a slowness ??

why Iexplorer alone is taking 100% of CPU time ?how do i solve thsi problem ??

The 100% CPU usage is definitely causing your problem. If you're running IE6, go to the Add/Remove Programs Control Panel and click Remove on IE6...it will allow you to do a repair operation. If you're not running IE6, you may want to consider upgrading at windowsupdate.microsoft.com.
