Anyone else having this problem when UAC is active the internet browsing is
very very slow? When you de-activate the UAC the internet browsing is normal
using IE7 w/all patches and hot fixes.
 
I suspect you have a BHO or other program interfering with your
browsing. Try this, turn UAC ON - Start - All Programs - Accessories -
System Tools - IE without Add-ins. If that works well then you have
a BHO or other program running that causes the issue. Check in
Window's Defender - BHO and Processes.

A bit slower since UAC provides behind the scenes checking when UAC is
enabled BUT it shouldn't be that much slower that you really notice.
So the question becomes HOW much slower is it?
 
With out UAC it only takes second to load home pages. With UAC it takes
minutes
 
I checked in Defender and I have no BHO and Processes option.

I did check IE7's Add-ons and disable a couple and things did speed up a
little. I'll keep looking

Thanks
 
Defender - Tools - Software Explorer

IE - Tools - Manage Add-ons

Task Manager - check what is running
