IE is beyond all hope, Ive given up on that Frankenstein monster years ago. I tried to run it a few months ago and I couldnt believe how long it took, then of course first page I hit it locks up.

Same here running on my backup pc ,P4 @ 3ghz 1gb xp ...fully patched and up to date.. locks up solid EVERY TIME when you use IE... FireFox for me. IE did run good for me on my (now dead) primary pc , a dual core Vista32 machine w/4gb... Then again the F111 proved that anything could fly if you bolted on enough horsepower.
It’s crazy isn’t it, all the money microsoft has and you would think they could get their act together for one freakin’ good browser that actually works, but no.
