You are supposed to have a bunch of things running under processes. The vast majority of those things are windows processes. If you think there are programs running that shouldn't be, get a spyware/malware remover such as SpyBot, or AdAware. Another good thing to do is go into Add/Remove programs, and "Remove" anything that you don't use. Just make sure you find out what it is before you remove it. It's not unusual to have that many processes running...in fact, right now I have over 50.

Use an online scanner, Bitdefender works fine\nhttp://www.bitdefender.com/scan8/ie.html\n\nOr you could be more aggressive and use HijackThis, which is a program that can show you what is running on you computer even the hidden things and give you the information on the ones to safely stop and delete.\nhttp://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/htlogtutorial.html#r
