open Extra on top of the Internet Explorer page and go to Internet Options, there you can clean all the cookies! but remember; you will delete all your passwords so best thing is to write them down first

simple enough mate??

'Start', 'run', type 'msconfig', 'ok', tab along top is 'startup, hit it, 'disable all', 'close', restart pc.

This removes everything that starts up with the pc. You may want MSN to startup everytime, if so, just put that tick back in.

Try disabling them, just see if they are holding it up? Only need to do it for a few moments.
