Running XP sp2 build 2600, ZoneAlert Suite 5x as firewall, anti-virus, pu
block, ad & spyware scrubber.
Whenever I login my Startup programs run and I am able to manage them no
problems, then when I try to start IE6 it will not load at once. I left
click the shortcut, get the hour glass, which disappears after several
seconds, then it take up to a couple of minutes for IE to run. While this is
happening I cannot launch or manage any desktop function. Ctr,Alt,Dlt does
not load while this is happening so I cant see whats hogging my resources.
After smoking a couple of cigerettes IE6 finally loads my home page and task
manager pops up (alone with any other program I tried to launch during the
hang). After that it will load instantly whenever I launch it. Go figure. I
virus scan twice weekly so that is not the problem. Any ideas?
Next, again after a login the first time I load Explorer (file manager) I
get the waving flashlight in the right pane and then it takes minutes to
display my files. Whats the deal here?
These are the only two programs giving me this problem. Does it have
anything to do with the fact that they both have Explorer in the name???
