I hope this is right group...I can't find an IE7 group

IE7 has become pitifully slow.

A friend suggest Safari.

Safari is lightning fast.

I'm used to IE7 and would like to return to it if I could get it's speed up.

I was blaming my ISP...How wrong!

Any help appreciated!

======================================

=> Does this behavior persist if you start IE7 in No Add-ons mode? To start
IE7 in No Add-ons mode:

1. Right-click on the blue IE desktop icon and select Start without Add-ons;
or

2. Start > (All) Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Internet Explorer
(No add-ons).
