Has anyone else had the problem where the browser slows down substantially
after installing the latest version of Google Toolbar. (I was using the non
reporting version of the toolbar). If I uninstall the toolbar and remove
the tick beside 'enable third party browser extension' in IE advanced
options, the browser goes back to normal. Had no trouble using older
version of the toolbar with IE 5.5 SP2.

Anyone with a solution? Really would like to use the toolbar but not if it
slows things down like it does.

Cheers,

Larry
