Windows 7: Typing lag in any browser IE9, Chrome or FF

We have been experiencing this behavior for some time. It happens at least once a day but only in the above mentioned browsers. All other applications like MS Office 2007 and Notepad and Wordpad work just fine. I followed someone else post who was experiencing the same issue and disabled the 10/100/1000 Local Network Connection since we mostly use the wireless connection to connect to our wireless router. But the issue still continues.

Can anyone make a suggestion as to where to look in order to resolve this problem ?

It could be plugins/addons in the browsers... I'd have a look through each browser's enabled add-ins. If there's one they all have, it could be that.

Victor,
Increase your ram to 4GB.

What anti-virus are you using?

Thanks for the reply. We have tried IE9 without any addons. The issue still persist. Same thing I checked Chrome with the following command chrome://extensions and it showed no extensions installed. Both IE9 without addons and Chrome without any extensions still have the same typing lag. Even while I am typing this message in Chrome I am having the typing lag. Same when I just now switched over to IE9 without Addons I am getting the lag. Firefox has addons installed or I should say plugins installed but I did not try by disbabling all plugins.

Thanks again

Thanks for the reply. I don't believe by adding more memory will resolve the issue since we have 6GB of RAM installed and usually have over 4GB of free or available RAM at any given time. Other applications don't experience the same typing lap as much as the browsers do.

Were using Norton Security Suite 5.0.2.29 I believe.

Any other ideas.

Thanks

Does this have any sort of 'online protection' mode? It could be 'monitoring' what you type to make sure you don't dish out any credit card numbers, etc., in the wrong places, I guess...

Victor,

Your system specs show 2 GB.

Thanks for the help. I believe that Norton does have "online protection mode" which protects all sensitive data stored on the computer. The thing is that is sluggishness starts at random and is never predictable. At first we have noticed that Norton will start running from Process Monitor and then when it stops the pages are still sluggish and slow in typing.

Yea I kind of thought it might something like that but the good ones are hard to detect with just merely typing. Norton does have some online privacy protection to protect sensitive data on the hard drive. Appreciate the feedback.

Thanks appreciate the reply. I've updated as much as I could. Let me know Victor.
