Slow IE Page Redraws

For about a month now IE has been painfully slow in
drawing pages. I turned on the IE setting "Display
Debugging Script" and found that everytime I changed web
pages there was at least one debugging request made. When
I opened this MS newsgroup for browsers, there were a
total of eight windows that popped up with the following
message, "A Runtime Error Has Occurred. Do you wish to
debug?" followed by a Line XX and some description
like "Error: Object expected".
I've turn that switch off now just to save the annoyance,
but IE is still taking 30 seconds plus to put up a new
page. Any ideas as to what is going on and how do I fix
it?
I am running Windows XP Pro, IE v
6.0.2800.xxxx.xpsp2.xxxx, Office 2003 and have a Pentium
IV, 2.8 gHz and 1 gig of memory. I routinely install MS
updates for IE, Win XP Pro and Office as MS notifies me.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.
 
Hi Mike :-)

Try the following and see if it helps.

Clear TIF Files
The temporary files only holds so many files, so perhaps you might try
clearing the Temporary Internet Files and History.

Tools | Internet Options | At the Temporary Internet Files click on Settings
| View Files tab | Edit | Select All \ click Delete key, then click OK.
Click Clear History
