By the way, what virus scanner is everyone using? I'm using McAfee VirusScan corp version (4.5.1 sp1) on all my machines, and am not experiencing the problem on any of them.

Question. Do the people who experience this have their systems setup to single click to open or to doubleclick to open. I do not have the problem and I am setup to single click to open files, so that they automatically get selected on mouseover.[size=1]D3/\/7YCR4CK3R

No Problem here
I don't see it here on my dual Xeon 1.7Ghz. Using AVG Pro and set to double click - no active desktop - all patches installed. My CPU usage goes to 53% then goes to about 3%.

Although that's not a big problem for me...
btw, in tasks list it is visible that explorer is the thing eating cpu...
oh, and I've got AthlonXP 1700+ (palomino)

I figured it out! Yay me! It's to do with the "show common tasks in folders" setting. I've always set it back to classic folders, so I've never had the problem. Check it out.
