Can anyone tell me why my internet explorer is grinding
to a halt. Im running XP professional and when you try
and open explorer it takes from 20 seconds to upto 2
minutes to open, and when it does open, if you browse
from page to page it can hang for ages. It never used to
do this and the problem seems to be getting progressively
worse. Im desperate for a solution as i really dont want
to re-format the hard drive again.
 
Spyware calling home?

This may be caused by a third-party program (adware, spyware, parasite).
Get AdAware and SpyBot and run them both. Keep them up to date.
