    Internet Explorer slow

    Internet Explorer seems to be going slow I have XP and Internet Explorer 6 and do delete temp files and cookies regularly. I'm on Dial-Up but it seems to be much slower of late. Can someone help?

    Have you used any spyware scanning programs?
    Spybot?
    Adaware?
    Done an online virus scan ?

    I hate to tell you this but adaware isnt nearly enuff to say you have a clean system.
    I would use spybot and i would also try a free trial of one of the others.
    Like counterspy or Ewido
    Unfortunately spyware/crapware has become so bad that no one program is ever enuff

    Norton internet security is likely 1 cause of the pc being slow
    What system and ram have you got ?
