Double .exe files in task manager

On certain applications like aim.exe, firefox.exe, launcher.exe (for world of warcraft), and some others, I get double the .exe files.

So when I start up firefox or aim, I check task manager and I have two firefox.exe or two aim.exe files, one of wich takes up 99 CPU and slowly climbs up memory usage, so I have to end that task so my comp doesnt lag like crazy. I can still use the programs but it is an inconvience to always have to end the task. And I have checked Spybot, Antivir, Hijackthis, but nothing out of the ordinary comes up.

Maybe I changed some setting or something...
(also I now notice that the Applications board would be a better place for this...but I do have windows XP >_> )
