Internet Explorer 6 Running Very Slow!

mari23 · 06-23-2005, 09:52 PM

I'm running Internet Explorer on Windows 2000 and have a cable modem. It takes forever for a page to load. Any ideas??

Any other problems that you have noted?

Let's start here...

The Temp folders should be cleaned out periodically as installation programs and hijack programs leave a lot of junk there. Download CleanUp! http://cleanup.stevengould.org/ (Alternate Link if main link don't work - http://www.greyknight17.com/spy/Cleanup.exe ) and install it. Run CleanUp! and click on CleanUp! button. When it asks you if you want to logoff, click on Yes.

I did what you suggested and it's already running so much better. Thanks!
