Hi All,
This morning when I came into work IE8 on Windows XP has been slow to load the first page or a new tab for most of my PC clients. I have (dare I say it) installed Firefox (for testing) and this opens up the home page immediatley with or without proxy set.
I have one install with Win7/IE9 and this is fine. There has been no change to any of the Win2003 servers or clients for months apart from monthly patching.
I have tried the following:
- With and without the proxy server ticked
- Reset button from the advance tab
- re-installed IE8
- re-started the server hosting the web proxy
- re-started the router
All to no avail. IE8 still takes a couple of minutes to load the first page. All help greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Simon
