Why is Microsoft's IE 8 so slow?Even the lastest Updated !!

My Microsoft IE 8 which has been updated several times now is also beginning
to get slower and slower each day that passes. Why is this happening? There
has to be something causing this.For over a Decade I have used nothing but
Microsoft's Internet Explorers and never had a speed issue one but in the
past year everything that could go wrong with an IE has gone wrong.
Microsoft? What is happening? I am having not wanting to use any and all
other Browsers.I do not like any that I have used so far since being so
relied upon on Microsoft's Internet Explorer Browsers. Today I had to go to
Google Chrome as a default browser simply because Microsoft's twice updated
IE 8 has gotten so slow I simply could not use it anymore.Please anyone,can
you please explain to me why this is all of a sudden happened in the past
9-12 months?

Try running IE 8 with Add-ons disabled by going to the Start Menu then All Programs Accessories System Tools Internet Explorer (No Add-ons).
Also, tyr reading this post from the IE 8 blog about speeding up the browser - http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/200...bs-faster.aspx

Hope this quickens things for you,

You're not alone. The same thing is happening to me, and Google is littered
with similar stories:
http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en...G=Search&meta=

DelDomains made no difference for me, nor did registering actxprxy.dll nor
running IE8 with no add-ins...

The main problem I have is that when trying to navigate to a website the tab
sticks at "Connecting" - sometimes I have to open half a dozen tabs before
one of them will connect:
http://www.google.co.uk/search?aq=f&...IE8+connecting

I also get this a lot:
http://www.google.co.uk/search?sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q="Internet+Explorer+was+closed"

Like you, I also use Google Chrome for almost everything now...

Try opening the following MySpace profile in Chrome and then in IE8:
http://www.myspace.com/sanctuaryrig - the difference is unbelievable!
