If you read the previous posts in this thread and the links that are
provided (and discussions about this in various other non-Microsoft
newsgroups), you'll see that IE8 doesn't play nicely with several
anti-spyware programs that provide protection, e.g., IE-Spyad, Spyware
Blaster, the immunization from Spybot S&D. What has apparently happened is
that these programs together with IE8's new Loosely Couple IE (LCIE) feature
place too many domains in the restricted sites zone, causing the slowness
and the CPU spiking. This was known from beta testing, so I'm not sure why
it wasn't made clear to people before we installed IE8 and slowed our
systems to a crawl. It looks as if we have to choose between the protection
we've been using in the past--and either uninstall IE8 and stay with IE7
and/or use a different browser--or uninstall the other programs and use IE8.
Of course Microsoft expects all the other programs to create revised
versions that are compatible with IE8, but many people are calling on MS to
make the needed changes. I can't see that happening anytime soon.

I'm not sure what the story is with IE8 but it's bogging my system
too. I've uninstalled it and 7 still worked fine, reinstalled it and
everything bogged down again. If I can't find out what's slowing
things down I'm going back to 7 shortly until an SP or something
makes it work right.

Hmm, thanks, Andrea; I haven't followed the IE8 follies for a couple
reasons I won't bore you with. Your assessment is interesting enough to
do some research on though and look back in the archives. This is a
side of things I never expected but it does match up well IMO with what
I'm experiencing.
Remember when MS was a great company and actually at least appeared
to have their customer's interests at heart? Ahh, nostalgia! g
Thanks for the head-up or whatever it should be called.
Microsoft: They enabled everyone to have a computer at their desk and
taught the industrial masses how to release alpha-ware as production
code! De-evolution at its finest.

I was going to mention to Andrea for the masses but forgot:

I've discovered that if you "hammer" at the URL (ONLY until it finally
starts to see data coming from the site - watch your status bar & once
it connects, stop hammering) that it'll speed up the access process a
fair amount. It's repeatable and easy to verify, so there is something
to it, though I don't know what. It'll suffice for now until I decide
what I'm going to do about IE8. I might just leave it alone and put
FireFox back as my default browser.
Indiscriminate hammering of course will lengthen the overall access
times plus is pretty rude & crude to be doing if it's actually leaving
your machine.

Not that I am aware of. Please start your own new thread and explain /your/
problem. Not in this thread. Thank you.
