Jar,
Just loaded firefox on.......jesus thats quick!!!
Death,
I run a virus check(Norton) every week, and have Spyware Doctor do a full scan on start up and have it running in the background aswell....
It seems to have got a lot quicker now by just changing to Firefox, come to thing of it I have had this problem since the last XP service pack(was it SP2??). Probably something in that, that was slowing it down.
Tnx

Heres a way to make Firefox run even quicker.
All you've got to do is type "about:config" into your address bar, wait for it to load, then alter the following entries: change "network.http.pipelining" to "true", "network.http.proxy.pipelining" to "true" and lastly "network.http.pipelining.maxrequests" to 30, meaning it will be able to make 30 requests at once. :;):
