6. **close IE if you have it open**
rename index.dat to index.old
logoff and log back on (don't need to restart)

open up IE and go to a web page or site that always seemed to load slowly. It should load a lot more quickly now.

Remember:

Always rename or backup.dat or other system files before deleting.
Have you ever had Norton installed on your system it renowned for slowing down IE, if you have you needto get rid of all the HIDDEN files Let me know
