 |
|
Hello,
I am having trouble with my Internet explorer.It is doing some very odd things.Sometimes it will completely close the page i am visiting for no reason or it will be very slow loading pages and when i say slow i mean very very very slow for eg i tried to google something and after 10 minutes of the page trying to load i gave up.I thought that it was perhaps the topic i was searching so i tried putting in random things to see if that made any difference but it didn't.Another problem i had was when i was on a forum and clicked on a link and nothing happened i tried to open a new tab and that wouldn't work either and it would let me access any options that are in my tools menu.i had to restart my computer.Just to let you know i have high speed Internet connection.Thanks in advance to anyone that helps me with this problem. |

| Could be you've got thermate in your case. Open it up and look for the telltale moulten iron in the bottom. |

You've come to the right place obviously.
This could be for a number of reasons;
Is it just limited to IE, or are other programs running slowly too?
What else do you have running (file sharing applications such as Bearshare will eat up cpu)?
Have you opened task manager to monitor performance and check to see what else is running?
When does it happen specifically, random times or after you have done something?
Have you run a virus scan?
Who is your service provider, how long have you been with them?
Does rebooting help at all? Is it still slow immediately after a reboot?
Are you running XP?
Which version of IE is it?
Do admins often delete your posts on other boards?
This info is a good starting point.
