So after booting up my computer and NOT running internet explorer, I start to get a series of multiplying iexplore.exe processes that all hog up a total of 100% of my CPU resources. As I delete them, they just keep popping back up. I've run Adaware and Spybot and A-squared and removed all the problems, but now there is nothing left and the problem is still ocurring.

Any help at all I can get is very very very appreciated. I'm nervous about where the iexplore.exe's are connecting to and it slows my PC down to a complete crawl.

I'm posting my hijackthis log below.
