]For the past few days IE6 has been VERY slow to startup on my computer. It all seems to have started when I attempted to run the Windows OneCare Live scanner last weekend. I started the scan Friday afternoon, and when I came back into the office Monday, the scan was stuck at the "Compress Old Files" even after having let my computer perform the scan all weekend. I had to cancel the scan, and ever since then, every time I start IE, it takes about 2-3 minutes for the window to load. Once the window has loaded, it runs just fine, though. But, whenever I open a link in a new window, the same thing happens.
Here are a few things I have tried (in no particular order), none of which seemed to make anything better/worse:
* CCleaner
* Spybot - Search & Destroy
* AdAware
* F-Secure Blacklight Rootkit Scanner
* A-Squared Free Scanner
* Panda ActiveScan
* Uncompressed every file/folder on my hard drive (using "compact /u /s /a /i /q *.*" from the command line)
* Removed all the objects from the "Tools | Internet Options | General | Settings… | View Objects…"
* Deleted all cookies
* Deleted all temporary internet files
* Logged in as a different user account on this computer to see if IE loads slowly in that account also
I am now using FireFox, and it seems to work just fine, but would like to go back to IE if possible.
