Increasing Internet Explorer Speed

Internet explorer the default browser which comes bundles with Microsoft is known to be very slow while taking you on an internet ride. The only reason why people may possibly rely on Internet Explorer is because of the security issues. People running very slow packet internet connections are really fed up of this browser and stick to Mozilla or Chrome. With the release of IE9 Microsoft has changed the history of browsers for the first time and put Mozilla behind in terms of speed.


  1. If you are running an earlier version of Internet Explorer try to update it. IE9 is only for Windows 7 users who have a valid copy of Windows 7 installed.
  2. If you are unable to update the browser open the current version and go to Tools.
  3. Select internet options.
  4. Now go to the Advanced section.
  5. Go to browsing section and disable the 'enable suggested sites' option. This option when enables finds news and other contents on the internet continuously thus decreasing your speed.
  6. Disable the 'show http error messages'. This reduces the load on the processor.
  7. Disable every option in the international section.
  8. In multimedia section disable the 'enable automatic image re-sizing' option. This also increases the browsing speed. Generally the data is already present it is just that the computer uses calculations and tries to make the webpage best fit in the browser by trying different settings to ensure the best view to be enabled.
  9. Now go to the security section. This is one section which makes it so late to deliver the webpage. The only three important options to be checked are SSL, TLS and the memory protection option. Apart from this disable all other protection. When the windows firewall is on you need not worry much about the security options. Moreover you are never secure even with these options turned on. They just make it difficult to the hacker to hack your system. But with firewall definitely there is no chance that someone hacks into the data of your computer.


Now close the browser and restart it. This once done increases the speed of the Internet Explorer which is much considerably observable on the slower as well as faster connections.
