You have to search all over the Internet. Re-formatting
doesn't work. It is not a virus.

Whenever you open a folder with different kinds of
multimedia files, Windows (not Internet) Explorer's CPU
cycles jump through the roof. It's a bug in this last
round of patches.

See for yourself. Don't be afraid to edit your
Registry. Just back it up first. Easy.

I kept having the same problem, thinking it was a virus.
There are no viruses. Plain and simple: MS' patches are
buggy. Just like they were with WinME SP1 years ago.
