Slow IE

I recently purchased an HP zd8000 laptop which has XP pro with SP2. I have
two computers, both hard wired to a Netopia DSL router, and both with the
same operating system.
Now, simply said, on my old laptop, HP Zt1290, when I push the Internet
Explorer icon, the explorer opens instantly and I can browse without any
problems. When I do the same on the new laptop, it takes approx 25 seconds
for the internet to open up, then it seems to be quite sluggish and
intermittent. When a page begins to load, it freezes up, then after about 10
seconds the entire page pops in.
Any ideas
 
Yep my laptop is slow opening I.E up, i can hear the drive spinning like mad
but it takes up to 30 secs for I.E to appear.
I solve it by deleting internet files via internet options and it sloves it,
i have to clear it out every 2 weeks or so.
Hope it works for you.

Reduce the size of your Temporary Internet Files to 50 MB.
