Up until about 5 days ago my Internet Explorer was running just fine and taking a few seconds to load (maybe 10 seconds max). Now it's taking more than 2 minutes. I've tried running an antivirus and spyware scan, deleted all search history and cache, run CCleaner. I've even removed some other programmes in case they might be slowing things down. Once it has loaded, everything runs just fine with no problems at all. And I already have Firefox, Google Chrome and Opera as well and they all load just fine. It's just that I need Internet Explorer for some applications. Oh, and it is the latest version that I'm running.
Any other suggestions would be gratefully received because I'm all out of ideas.

Hi internet explorer is really slow now I reccomend you use firefox 3.0, but if you want internet explorer then dont use internet explorer 8 its a beta version and that means its not fully complete! Try going on windows update, delete ie8, and install firefox or ie7!

un-installl every other internet program apart from i.e

and download the i.e 7.that's the best one as it has no problems.

then download malwarebytes' anti-malware as it helped me so much and i recommend it to everyone as it saved my computer, and that started with whats happening to you, and the anti-virus didn't pick it up

also, if all else fails, scan every single protection program you have on safe mode. it should then speed up, or another way is to search on google for program to speed up the program load and connection.

Get Mozilla Firefox instead.

well delete anything you've recently downloaded, and anything that's taking up a lot of memory. my computer did that too and when i deleted a few things that were taking up a lot of space, it worked just fine. if you have the latest version of anything, you should proably temporarily delete it. delete any programs you don't use, and any internet downloads you dont use.Hope this helps =)

Try Google Chrome it's a lot quicker to load and a lot less messy.
