Inactive [InActive] Desperately need some advice on IEXPLORE.EXE problem

I have IEXPLORE.EXE appearing on my processes on Task Manager even when I am not using internet, CPU usage shoots up to 100% and sometimes I cannot close down without End Task on this process. This does not show up on running tasks and my AVG and Spy BOT s&D do not appear to be picking it up. It appears I have a trojan and I am at my wits end as to what to do. Is it best to just start from scratch and clear the system and reinstall windows or can you help me ?
Below is my HijackThis log.

Thanks Nogusano

Hi nogusano
Welcome to WindowsBBS

Please do this.

Download ComboFix from Here to your Desktop.

It's best to disable realtime protection applications as they sometimes interfere with the tool.
Check this link for any applicable programs you may have.

• Close all open programs and windows
• Double click combofix.exe and follow the prompts.
• Vista users right click Combofix.exe and select Run As Administrator.
• When finished, it shall produce a log for you. Post the Combofix log

Note: Do not mouseclick combofix's window while its running. That may cause it to stall

Note - ComboFix may reset a number of Internet Explorer's settings, including making it the default browser.

Note - Combofix makes some changes when run to prevent autorun/autoplay of ALL CDs, floppies and USB devices, to assist with malware removal & increase security. If this is an issue or makes it difficult for you to use those devices, please ask how to reset it.

Thanks
Geri
