Firefox

I have IE7 and Firefox 2 and I prefer Firefox. Though it does tend to start to use a ridiculous amount of ram if you leave the same window open for awhile. Quick question, what the hell is going on with this on my machine:

If you can't tell from the picture, the process "iexplorer.exe" is highlighted and currently using 97k+ of ram. And it is always running.. always. I can even select "end process" which will successfully end it, but seconds later it will pop up again on the list and quickly climb to that same amount of ram usage.
I have tried probably half a dozen different spyware and malware programs and they pick up nothing on my machine. I even tried running them all at once just for kicks and still nothing.
