1) can anyone tell me what these mean in my Task Manager?

2) I ask because my explorer.exe sometimes goes above 200,000 and my
IEXPLORE.exe creeps into 170,000

And the higher they go (they start out at like 25,000 each when I turn
my computer on) the slower my internet connection gets.

I've run all sorts of spyware, virus protection stuff, but nothing
fixes this.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
