IE 8 with Windows 7 is like mud when opening
There has to be a solution on this problem. IE 8 is SLOWWWW opening and when clicking on new tabs.
Acessing sites is fairly fast, but opening is terrible
Whats the solution?

Others have suggested the Java plug-in 2 ssv helper may be causing slowdown in IE, might see if disabling it gives any difference, that is if you have it installed. I have no noticeable slow down with it myself though. There is also a new version of Java 6 update 17 ,you may update and see if it helps any. Possible some other add-on is causing slowdown. You might even try resetting IE to see if it helps.
I changed my AV to Vipre and eliminated Kaspersky and this system fly's now. No problems, Kaspersky was the anchor holding everything down
I had so many issues with it I completely abandoned the program
I use Kaspersky and I too have noted not so much that that IE is slow to load, it is very slow to open subsequent tabs the first time. After I have opened one extra tab, others open quickly.
Make what you wish out of that! Having 9 licences on the go for Kaspersky I can't readily ditch it.
At the risk of being shot down, I have to ask - why?
I consider myself a pretty knowledgeable computer user, and I know IE has its problems, but I don't think it is fair to imply that IE users are not knowledgeable computer users.
I've been using IE since its first incarnation, and I can't say I've had any serious problems with it, so why change and have to get used to a new interface?
I always assumed everyone used Firefox.
All the addons and 3rd party apps make it a fine choice.
Load up FF and then install freeware called Mozilla Preloader.
FF will open instantly.
There are some great Gmail addons as well
