Hi Jim
Try the following and see if it helps:
Clearing the TIF Cache -
Safely Delete the Temporary Internet Files
http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/delcache.htm
or.......
It could be a corrupted cache. Delete the Temporary Internet Files folder
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/delcache.htm
NOTE: If TIF is much larger than 50 MB, IE starts to slow down because it's
actually faster to get the information from the Internet than to find it in
TIF. In addition, you start losing the ability to save pictures as anything
but a BMP and you lose the ability to View | Source. Unfortunately, as far
as I know IE still by default grabs some percentage of the drive for TIF and
for large drives this is way too much. 50 MB seems to be about the best.
Hope this helps.

Hi, does anyone know why IE would all of a sudden take a full 18 seconds
to
open whether it was a url that was clicked on, or double clicking the
icon?
it used to work fine, but all of a sudden, this happened. I am running XP
SP2
with 1 gig of Ram. I have run spy sweeper, and Norton's antivirus as well
as
Nortons Win doctor, but nothing helps. can you?
thanks.
Jim.
