For those finding IE8 slow, re-registering one of the DLLs may solve your problem. From the command prompt do :-regsvr32 actxprxy.dll
That re-registers the ActiveX Interface Marshaling Library and can make massive improvements to the performance.
Note that if you try this using Windows Vista, you must do this from an elevated Command Prompt window; type cmd in the Start menu Search box, right-click the Cmd.exe shortcut, and then choose Run As Administrator.
