I have a strange problem. If I try to open a program such
as excel or Word, it takes a long time to open, as though
something else is running. If I disable my network
connection, my speed returns to normal. I have downloaded
all critical updates and my Norton antivirus does not find
anything. I am connected to a 100mbps network with a frac
T to the outside world (www. Any ideas. I thought it
might be a buffer overrun but the updates should cure
that. Thanks for any help.
 
Right-click on your IE desktop icon and select:
Properties > Advanced and scroll down to the
Security heading. Uncheck the box next to
"Check for publisher's certificate revocation"
and click "apply" and reboot.

It appears that all the NAV files are signed with a certificate
that expired 1/7/2004. Every time it tries to use a file, it's going
out to VeriSign to see if it's really expired and if there's a new
certificate available.

Hopefully Symantec will correct this issue soon.

Help. I'm having the same problem, and I'm trying to follow the advice offered but I don't know what Carey is referring to when he talked about the IE Desktop icon. Please explain. Thanks
 
He's talking about the Internet Explorer icon that was
originally on your desktop. If you've deleted it go to
Control Panel & open Internet Options.
