Datalore Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 You may have spyware on your computer. To remove it, go to LavasoftUSA.com and download the free version of Adaware. Update the reference files, and then scan your entire machine. If that doesn't remove the spyware or fix the problem, try downloading Spybot S&D to scan again.If all else fails, Google search for "Reinstall Internet Explorer" and follow the instructions.

Ignace Posted March 18, 2004 Share Posted March 18, 2004 Here is some other tool you have to try:HijackthisIt helped me to get rid of things that adaware did not find.Not only it lists all startup items, it also list all BHO's (Browser Helper Objects) and DPF (Downloaded Program Files). Those BHO's and DPF are loaded whenever IExplorer is active. Hijackers often use BHO's for tracking online behaviour, displaying popups, etc. Same for the DPF.When I removed all crap Iexplorer also opened much faster and consumed less RAM.
