Speaking of viruses have you tried other utlities to see if that will see a thorough cleaning without a wipe of the drive? Sometimes what may seem like a virus may a form of trojan downloader or other type of spyware. As far as IE especially with the newer IE 7.0 beta now available just browsing pages wouldn't place a great demand on cpu time unless you were using multimedia players for video and audio where some degree of processing load is then placed on the memory as well as the cpu. Here's a few utilities for virus and spyware detection and removal to look over at the following link.
