Internet explorer slow loading
I have had a Dell Dimension 3000 for about 18mths and it has been working great.
I use BT broadband with their voyager 105 modem.
In the last couple of weeks I am having many problems.
I can connect to broadband quickly and the IE6 homepage ( Google in my case) loads straightway.If I then try to Google or use any favourites or access my email,I can go and make a cup of tea in the time it takes to load.Once I have reached the first other URL, IE6 performs quite well if a little slow.Sometimes it never loads the URL and it's ctr-alt-del time.
Another problem is logging on-if another user in my house tries to log on after the first user you keep getting returned to the log in window.
I am getting to the stage of thinking about backing up all my valuable folders and reformatting the HD
I am running McAfee security suite on this m/c which has always made the boot up a little slow.
This is driving me mad.I am not too up on sorting computer problems ( I can drive one but can't fix anything major)
Please help
