Upgrade to IE7 produces a 30-45 second lockup soon after launch of

[Guest]

I have not been able to resolve this issue. The OS is Windows XP
Professional and is up-to-date. The problem is that the browser freezes upon
opening. It takes about a minute after opening before the freeze occurs, but
then after 30-45 seconds the freeze is released.

Any ideas?

If your Home page if full of Graphics, Flashes and your connection that not
fast, also put in consideration the Anti-virus, updates for your operating
system all of these take place and try to check for updates and know or take
it's position on the operating system can delay your page showing.
Malwares infecting your computer, How much RAM you have installed, how much
Disk Space and how much the website server is busy?.
All the above can contributes to the slowing of the page to show.

Also you can perform these steps to see if there is an Add-Ons causing this
issue or a third-party toolbar.
1= Click start >> Control Panel >> Double Click Network and Internet
Connections >> Double click Internet Options, on the IE Properties window
you will see these Options:
General | Security | Privacy | Content | Connections | Programs
| Advanced .

Click on General Tab (1st Tab on the left) and you will see a Button called
[ Clear History ..] click on it to clear your History caches, then click on
[Delete Files..] to delete Internet Files created over the time, click on [
Delete Cookies...] to delete your cookies left by visiting websites.

= Then try to Disable the Add-Ons on your Browser somehow installed on your
browser, On how to disable the Add-ons follow this:
Click on Programs Tab and then click the Manage Add-Ons Button there Disable
the None/Not Verified Plug-ins/Add-ons ( you can Renable them one-by-one
later and see which is the culprit or you can send them here in your next
post) and click [OK] to confirm your Changes.

Click on Advanced Tab and scroll down under the browsing option and uncheck
this box:
[&] Browsing
[ ] Enable Third-Party browser extensions (Req Rest) and click Apply
then OK to close your IE Properties.

What if you right click the IE icon on the desktop and choose Start Without
Add-ons?
Or go to Start | All Programs | Accessories | System Tools | Internet
Explorer (No Add-ons).

1. Does this behavior persist if you start IE7 in No Add-ons mode?

To start IE7 in No Add-ons mode:

Right-click on the blue IE desktop icon and select Start without Add-ons; or

Start > (All) Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Internet Explorer (No
