(Please don't listen to some of these people. They don't know what they are saying. Don't perform a step that might end up crashing your computer even more. YOUR INTERNET PROBLEM IS NOT CAUSED BY A VIRUS. Your IE should just be reset to default. That's all.)

The basic help, depends of course on your Operating System. Like the windows version of your computer. IF YOU ARE NOT USING A WINDOWS VISTA, and then you are using Internet Explorer version 7, I suggest you downgrade back to IE6.

Anyway, for your problem, here goes. This would definitely work for dial up, and also for high speed connections. First on your Internet Explorer, up on top, you should see there TOOLS; like where it says File, Edit, View, Favorites, TOOLS, Help.

After tools, click Internet Options. **If you don't see the tools on Internet Explorer, then go to start%26gt; control panel%26gt; INTERNET OPTIONS.

After you click on Internet Options. You are now on the general tab.

On general click on delete files, and delete cookies.

Then up on top, beside the general tab, click on Security. Then click default level down below. After default level, on the pictures up on top, click LOCAL INTRANET, then default level again. Then on the icons again on top, click on TRUSTED SITES, then default level. And do the same thing with RESTRICTED SITES.

After that, click on PRIVACY tab and click DEFAULT.

Then go to CONTENT tab then click on CLEAR SSL STATE.

Then go to the CONNECTIONS tab where it should be giving you the list of your connections, ok. Like there is a window there where it says VIRTUAL AND PRIVATE NETWORK, you should see the list of your connections. Click on the list of your connections then click on SETTINGS on the right side. Make sure that no boxes are checked especially for USE A PROXY SERVER... Just click OK after leaving all boxes NOT CHECKED. Then back on the CONNECTIONS tab, make sure the DOT is set to NEVER DIAL A CONNECTION.

Then on the PROGRAMS tab, click on RESET WEB SETTINGS. It should be asking you something after clicking on it, before you click on YES, take the check out on ALSO RESET MY HOMEPAGE.

Lastly, click on the ADVANCED tab and click, down below, RESTORE DEFAULTS.

After all of these, just click on APPLY and then OK.

Haven't used IE in a long time- too many problems with that- Firefox or Opera.

Yahoo home page does take a lot longer to load that it did a couple of months ago. I can't say that Firefox is any quicker.

I suspect it is due to all those animated adverts which need to be downloaded before the whole page is displayed.

See if you have any unnecessary programs running in the background.

I am not sure if this will solve your problem, but sometimes your Autocomplete information will get corrupted and cause a slow load. You can clear this data store by going into options and under the content tab click the Autocomplete button. Clear your forms and passwords. If you do not need to use Autocomplete, uncheck everything. OK out and shut down all IE windows.

I would also go to the General tab and click the Temporary Internet Files settings button. Next, click view objects button. For each of the objects you see in there, right click and select properties. If you do not recognize them as controls that you downloaded, delete them. Be careful though, some of these controls are needed by some websites to function properly like Flash, Java, etc, but it should be ok to remove them and if you need them again, you will just need to download and re-install the plug-in.

IE 7 is well known for giving trouble. You can fix it by uninstalling it through Add or Remove Programs after you remove it Restart your PC and re install it again. Actually I was going to advise you to get Firefox but seeing as you have it all ready I will do one better, download the Add On below it's call FasterFox it's an accelerator and your FireFox will be even faster. Cheers and Good Luck.
