OT: Winblows internet
« on: September 23, 2003, 10:23:36 PM »
Sorry its a PC question...BUUUUT

I've recently installed Win2000 on the laptop. I have downloaded Opera, and use a combination of Opera and IE. Trouble is, IE seems to be unnaturally slow (I HAVE to use IE for some things unfortunately). It was never that bad when I was running Win98. Any ideas?

Oh, before anyone suggests netscape, I just don't have the room for it and all the other #### it tries to install on my system...

Thanks in advance

Thanks Doobrey - for some reason the proxy server setting was checked, now its much faster.

The reason I have to use IE is that Opera just doesn't seem to work with some of the banking/sharedealing sites I use...

I might check out that mozillafirebird tho'
