IE hangs for 10-15 seconds

C

Christian

.... after computer downloads any website, but before the
downloaded page appears in IE window, the computer hangs
for about 10-15 seconds during which I cannot key
anything, move the mouse pointer, or see the page I have
just downloaded appear. It happens on every page, and w/
earlier IE versions as well. All other programs behave
normally.

OS: Win ME
IE: 6.0

Can anyone help me remedy this situation?

Sounds like spyware trying unsuccessfully to phone home.
Try using Spybot to see what it dredges up.
