I mostly use Firefox as my browser but found that both Firefox and IE are moving so slow on my computer. When I open a link from 4042 it takes at least 2 minutes to open and even if I have Tabs open and go out to search it takes a long time. Not sure if I have something setup wrong or what. It was not slow about a week ago or so and I ran a sweep a few days ago and found 1 trojan. Please help! Sherry
That's a symptom consistent with a resource shortage. Have you changed the browsers with add-on's or extensions lately? When is the last time you did a disk cleanup or manually cleaned the browser of cookies, history and files? Try this first and see what happens: Step1. Open Internet Explorer, Go to tools, internet options, and click the advanced tab. Step2. Uncheck enable third party browser extensions and click OK. Step3. Close Internet Explorer and then reopen Internet Explorer. (I don't use Firefox so you're on your own in removing browser extensions from it) If that doesn't work, do a browser cleanup in the same menu of internet options. Choose 'clear all'. (Note you should do this anyway and do it twice weekly for optimum performance)
Worked! You are the MAN! Thanks so very much. I do a spy sweep twice a month, scan the computer and check for add ons. Don't do much other than that. If I should be please let me know. Thank you so much, Sherry
