    Which virus checker do you use? If it's Avast: open the main user interface, click Real Time Shields, then Web Shield, then click the Stop button. Does that make browsing any quicker?

    I was using Avira. I have removed this and loaded Avast. I tried removing web shield and it is no quicker.

    I guess that would be a trade off between convenience and security?

    PS: I frequently get a little exclamation mark with error on page at the foot of MSE website pages.
