IE 6.0 very slow (Score: 1)

I hope you guys can help me. I'm running IE 6.0 on Windows XP SP1 and my web pages are taking forever to load!

IE is slow to open, but the web pages take even longer. I have already deleted my temporary internet files, temp files and everything with disk cleanup. I have already ran scandisk and defrag and it did not make one bit of difference.

All web pages, menu items, pictures, etc are slow to load and this is the only browser I have to test with.

This problem started after I loaded Norton Internet Security. I love the protections, but this program is really a hog!

I just check and my memory utilization is 72% and my swap file utilizatio is 75%. Is it time to add more memory?


Thanks in advance,
Ruthie

Hi!

I have various spyware and trojans stuck in my c:\_restore directory. They are mostly .cab extensions, but a few fall in the emp part of that directory and have other extensions. Of course, Windows has 'outsmarted' me by not allowing manual deletion of files from c:\_restore, and I do not remember my very old DOS language enough to call those files up individually and deal with them outside of Win. I've noticed that those of you more experienced with security matters know how to run a log file, but I have no idea what this is or how to do it. I have become a helpless AOL user, lol. Please, any suggestions and/or solutions that those of you more experinced in these matters could offer would be so very welcome and appreciated! Thank you so much in advance. :o)

Warm Regards,

Beth

running winxp. frequently cpu usuage reaches 100%. the culprit from task manager is civsc.exe. when ending the process, it goes back down to 2% usuage without any effect on programs. ran sasser, virus scan, etc.....all clean and ok. 'apparantly' from a ms site, when using a usb portable/removeable drive, even when safely disconnecting, a 'memory leakage' can occur???? supposedly ms has a temp patch but cannot find it.....QUESTIONS: permanently delete civsc.exe???? where is the fix file?????? and i could always d/c the usb cable, but a pain....thanks......

I cannot get rid of something called contexual search - it keeps running in the background. I have tried using Spybot and Hijack This but it is still there. Also Spybot detects and removes cool search items but then after a while they reappear. Each time I delete them with Spybot they reappear at a later stage. Any suggestions please?
