Hello I have experiencecd on several O/S lately from 98SE to XP that IE6 is
hanging for upto 30 seconds from the time the icon is clicked until it
actually launches. The systems have been scanned with NortonAV- AVG-Trojan
Remover and the main spyware sweeper programs. All are showing clean. Does
anyone have a similar situation? All the systems are P3-866 to P4-2.66 TIA
Alan On the XP's its set to autoupdate or not no difference either way. All
have been updated with windows update current.

IE6 I find slow but dont forget what happens as it loads that you dont
actually see.As long as it loads - well-Perhaps it only SEEMS like 30
seconds.Keep well defragged.

You could use the repair tool for I.E. in the Add/Remove programs.
Or an even more radical procedure, use IEradicator, then reinstall.
And perhaps the most radical thing of all(starting the drum
roll)...........................................In stall Mozilla Firefox 0.9
as I've done('cept that I have it as an alternate browser).

Have already tried repair options really don't want to try the eradicator.
Outlook express 6 will hang a bit sometimes too. Alan
