Has anyone else seen Explorer.exe hang (90% or higher Processor usage) for ~60 seconds when using 64 bit windows and 32 bit Internet Explorer? If I have a folder open and an internet page open at the same time switching windows will often cause about a 60 second lockup, then it catches up and it's fine. Altogether, I'll get it about 5-6 times an hour, though it's definitely not consistent. If I run the 64 bit version if IE it's fine. The exact same problem happened on Windows XP 64 bit edition.
