'Iexplore' appears twice

Every time I open up Internet Explorer, 'Iexplore' it appears twice on the
task manager window (when I view it with CTRL+ALT+DELETE). The problem is,
'Iexplore' appears in the task manager window EVERY time I open Internet
Explorer, so I end up with around 20 or so once the day is done, and this
sucks up a ton of memory. I want to know what's causing this and how it can
be fix.

Always post version details when you are asking for help.
Your observation would be normal for IE8 users.
