My IE7 is taking 60 to 90 seconds to load up to my home page. It then takes 40-60 seconds to load any other page. When I use Firefox I do not have this problem, it loads pages quickly. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling. I have also cleaned up any spyware, run disk cleanup, and defragged the hard drive, all with no effect. Any ideas?
I have the same problem. Takes forever "connecting" to my homepage (about:blank). Hyjackthis!, Ad-Aware, Spybot S&D, Avast and Norton IS2008 all say the system is clean. I have reset all my advanced internet options to their defaults. Uninstalled IE 7, rebooted to use IE6, and then reinstalled IE7 (7.0.5730.13). IE7 w/o add-ons runs just as slow ("C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" -extoff). Granted whenever the system bogs down I expect IE to slow up. When the LAN slows IE should too. But my other PC's on my LAN all run IE faster than this one and this one has one of the fasted processors with the most memory etc. etc.

Any Ideas?????????????????????
It may have been an ActiveX issue.. not sure. Interesting that re-install of OS did nothing.
Best of luck to you.
