IE7 Very Slow to Open Links from Outlook Express 6 Email

[Guest]

I originally posted this question on the OE6 board but the MVP there said
this was an IE7 issue --- any help will be appreciated.

"I am on an XP SP2 pc with OE 6 and a DLS web connection - I installed IE7 a
week ago and when clicking on a link from an OE6 email it usually takes
30sec-1 min for IE7 to load the page vs. when IE7 is started from the desktop
icon it comes up right away.

IE7 loads subsequent linked pages from within the same email very quickly
(usually) so I am wondering if this is a specific OE 6 problem that might be
fixed if I switch to Outlook 2003, or is there an OE 6 setting that can be
tweaked?

Any thoughts or ideas will be appreciated. Thanks... "

Sorry to shunt you around but IE7 issues should be posted to the IE7
newsgroup.
I see in http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/ie7/default.mspx that
the recommended newsgroup is microsoft.public.internetexplorer.general

In a proper newsreader:
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.internetexplorer.general

If you must use a web interface:
http://www.microsoft.com/communitie...?dg=microsoft.public.internetexplorer.general

No problem -- I didn't see a tab for the IE newsgroup. Thanks for the link.
