It depends, do you have any programs open? For instance right now I have IE and Adode open and my task manager shows 44 programs running.

A lot are background programs that are part of windows, but some can be viruses, spyware etc. You can get a free spyware scanner at avg.com that might clean up a few programs that are spyware.

The game requires java and several other programs probably.
