Hi there

Using IE8 64 bit version (note the 64 bit version of IE8 not W7 x-64) on 7100 x-64 seems to give real problems accessing some sites

For example it's taken nearly 10 Mins to get up the main Google search page.

I've got an XP laptop connected to the same LAN which retrieved the page almost instantly.

The 32 Bit IE8 seems to work just fine.

Something in the latest version of Windows update perhaps ? I noticed there was a "Test Windows update" change.

Perhaps I shouldn't rush to "apply" Windows updates ASAP.

Cheers
jimbo
