IE8 is lagging a lot lately.

My IE8 has ben giving me trouble the last 2-3 weeks. It used to be nice and fast, now a lot of times it'll be slow to load pages, some websites like ebaumsworld.com don't even work correctly at all. You have to click on something and wait for it to do something, about 5-10 seconds. If you click over and over it'll give the "Not Responding" message, then you have to close IE8 and start over.

This is very annoying. I ran all my virus scans, Task Manager shows nothing unusual except for IE8 taking 300+ MB of memory sometimes, and I even uninstalled and reinstalled IE8, with no change.

I have to use Firefox to get ebaumsworld to work at all. And occassionally some other sites too. Don't say use Firefox for everything, I like IE8 and need to use it at least a year past when everyone else stops using it, as usual.:shakehead
