Internet Explorer 8 is too slow

In the case that you’ve upgrade your Internet Explorer to version 8 and a clear slowdown is noticed when the opening the browser or the browser crashes when you try opening tabs, the logical step is to scan for viruses or malwares.

• But sometimes this doesn’t work and as result your IE8 is still to slow.
• IE 8 has its own system of protection against malicious sites. As a result, there would be conflicts when changing the hosts file (with the anti-spyware installed to protect your PC).
• Another factor is that it may be due to a badly declared File System
• In any case, we are still waiting for updates from Microsoft to resolve these problems.

Here below is a small tip helping you to manage with this problem.

• Close your browser and all applications before you proceed throughout the manipulation.

(WithVista, disable UAC before)

1st STEP

• Download the file "

  DelDomains.inf

  ":
• Right click here and select "save target as ..." and save "

  DelDomains.inf

  " on the desktop.
• Right click on "DelDomains.inf and choose install.

Then click on "Open".

2nd STEP

• Open the "Run" tab:
• Go to "Start" then click the "Run".
• Or press the "Windows" and the "R", the box "Run" will open ...
• In the input box, type this :

   cmd 

  and then press [Enter].
• A command prompt window (DOS) opens:

o Type

regsvr32 actxprxy.dll

and press [Enter].


Windows opens a window (RegSvr32) then click "OK."
