DO IT!!
Or you can do it yourself. Don't close any of the processes. Instead do a google of your syptoms first -- if you don't find the solution (you probably will) then what you do is type in the names of all your processes into google one by one (eg. ctfmon.exe; IEXPLORE.exe etc.) It will come up with some description of the process (usually the first or second hit that comes up) and will tell you whether it is harmful or not.
When you find the culprit, head over to your best friend google again and search 'how to remove [process].exe'
Or type in the name of the process or show us a list of them like hamgatan said and maybe someone can be bothered to do the searching for you

exactly. perfectly put.
i doubt iexplore would have been the perpertrating application at fault. many viruses today are blended threats so theyre using far more sophisticated ways of distribution of payload, as well as operating in stealth mode. you might have some other process thats running in your startup that is remote triggering IE to load and go to a particular URL to download the rest of its payload through activex exploits.. its been done a lot. i doubt very much that its just a virus posing as iexplore.exe.. thats so 1990s..
