    Could be spyware, or could be add-ons such as your printer software ect. Try removing any Google toolbars you may have ect, and try this:

    I got a brand new laptop recently and I am also having problems with the slowness of IE. And I have all sorts of anti spyware installed.

    I got round it by using another browser in my case Opera, see

    This works 99.9% of the time, & the remainder of the time I use a Firefox browser. These ar both faster and more secure than IE and they are easy to install. When you install them they will give you the option to make them your default browser & Opera is now my default
