Is anyone else having this problem? Explorer.exe takes up, on average, 20% CPU usage.. This makes all my games skip every few seconds, and other programs run crappy as well..

I know it's explorer, because if I end task on it, and run a game without explorer running, the games don't skip, and I get, on average, 20fps more then usual.

I've got Windows XP Professional.. An Athlon 1.1GHz, running at 1.3GHz, 384MB of PC133 RAM, an Abit KT7E motherboard, and a PNY GeForce 4 ti4400..

Any advice would be appreciated..
