CPU used up

All of a sudden my CPU is being maxed out. It started yesterday in the middle of normal use. Most windows functions seem to be normal but anything having to do witha browser (like Opera, IE, or even getting to this newsgroup) takes a lot of time and my browsers keep locking up and everything runs awfully slow.

I cant remember exactly what caused tyhis but it is possible that when I went to shut something down in the task manager that I accidently changed the priority on something or I terminated a process which is causing this.

Any ideas?

Please help
 
with 512 ram it looks like 32 used for explorer.exe, svchost.exe = 30, 24 for IEXPLORER.EXE x 2, CCAPP = 13, msmsgs = 12.5, , this is with nothing running, once I start up another window or I open opera, everything gets radically slow- though the cursor mooves easily,while switching windows things tend to freeze up and my connection speed is really slow but this is mostly associated with things opening in browsers. Dowloads are pretty fast (sattellyite connection)
any ideas?
