Sony Z1 1C5E 100% CPU Usage

my laptop have recently developed a problem, CPU usage would go 100% and everything would go dead slow, and restart is necessary to recover



it happens at random times while watching a move, or on skype, or just in MS Office...



it happens in Stamina and Speed mode



Since this problem started i have Clean installed windows 7

Changed antivirus to MS Security essentials, then got rid of antivirus all together (i thought that what was causing problems)

Still ever so often 2,3 times a week it will go to 100% CPU and I will have to restart

PS

Also I have noticed that all browsers I have used IE8 ,IE9 RC, Chrome will take have multiple processes for them (for a single browser and it will take up to 50% of CPU) I this normal ?

How can a browser take 50% of 2 Core i7, when it runs fine on Asus EEEPC with 1Ghz single core Atom ?

Specs.

Windows 7 Ultimate 64x

CPU - i7 620M

Quad SSD

8GB Ram

DVD drive

Also sometime use HP Touchscreen with the laptop, just thought to mention since it will start touch services in windows





Any help/advice appreciated
