Solve : IE8 background processes?

Answer» IE8 background processes

Maybe I'm being a little paranoid, but this seems odd to me...

I uses Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit, the only THINGS in startup are the required Windows, Audio, Graphics Driver, Mouse, and Kaspersky Internet Security 2010. On startup I've noticed it shows two copies of 'WMPNSCFG.exe' in the background tasks for a few seconds, then they disappear. The THING is I've disabled Windows Media Network Sharing.

Next is when I start Internet EXPLORER 8, I normally get two 'iexplorer.exe' processes, SOMETIMES three. It seems like one process for the entire program, then one each for the tabs, is this correct?

Sometimes it also asks to restore tabs on startup (recover like from a crash but it's never crashed), which still just opens 'about:blank' homepage.
