This started a couple of days ago, and I can't for the life of me figure this
out.
In IE6 (XP, haven't installed SP2 yet), when I type in a web address it is
not auto filling anymore. Once I've typed in the address and hit enter, it
take literally 2-3 minutes to go the site (which one doesn't matter). If I
click on a favorites link, or follow links to other pages, I fly through just
fine. I'm on DSL (Verizon), and have utilized Verizon's speedtest, and I'm
getting great response.
Conincidentally (or not?), in Outlook when I click on the paperclip to
attach a file it appears to freeze, just like above for 2-3 minutes.
At times when this happens, the apps stop responding, and I try to stop the
app through task manager. Sometimes that works -- other times I just have to
shut down the machine.
The only recent change I have is that I installed a new printer (HP2610xi -
set up as a network printer). Could that be it?
Also, I have Norton Internet Security 2004 and Ad-Aware. I've run both and
appear to be clean of viruses, spyware, etc.
Please help!!!!
