This problem started in the last day or so. After I sign on to Yahoo Mail I
cannot open any messages because when I try to do this the CPU usuage goes to
100% with iexplorer.exe going to 99 or 98 and the PC slows down alsmost to a
stop. I have signed into Yahoo Mail on another PC and do not have this
problem.
Hi Jim,
1- The best is to scan your computer with online scanner from here:
http://www.pandasecurity.com/activescan
http://www.avast.com ; if you don't hve Av you can get a free one from there.
And also for malwares from here:

http://www.safer-networking.org ; for Spybot S&D
Then try to Clear your caches,delete Internet Files and cookies then Disable
the Add-Ons on your Browser somehow your browser been
hooked by Add-ons or Plug-ins. On how to disable the Add-ons follow this:
Click start >> Control Panel >> Double Click Network and Internet
Connections >> Double click Internet Options, on the IE Properties window
click on Programs Tab and then click the Manage Add-Ons Button there Disable
the None/Not Verified Plug-ins/Add-ons ( * You Must Renable them Later
one-by-one and see which one will be the culpirt or you can Search for them
to see if they Legitimate Add-Ons or not *) and click [OK] to confirm your
Changes and Reboot your machine.
