My Son's PC
AMD Barton 2.6Ghz ASUS mother board
Win 2000 Pro operating system
Cable Internet Service

Norton AV, Ad Aware, SpyBot S&D and HiJack This! all show the system as clean.

All programs open and function at the correct speed except for certain functions and conditions that access the Internet.

Using the Regular Log in Identity and the standard installed Internet Explorer Icon defaulted to Google or Windows Media Player, both applications are very slow to open.

If I use a short cut icon to Google as saved in IE Favorites from the Desktop
or the Quick Launch bar, it opens at the correct speed!

If I go into Administrator both IE and Windows Media player open at the correct speed using the same icons that are very slow in the normal log in.

I created a new log in identity but got exactly the same results as the normal
log in identity.

Any ideas to get me on the right track would be appreciated.

Thanks
