Re: SP2 Windows Explorer Slow To Open

[Sudh1]

Rick,
I have tried but this solution is not helping me. In msconfig the WIA
service is sopped. And then I still see the same problem. For me it takes
close to 15 min,. before I get the windows explorer,. Any other suggestions,.
MY IE also takes a long time to load.

Guys,
Thanks for all the updates. I found all the reasons were due to the fact
that my computer was infested with spyware, trojan horses etc. Installing the
new Microsoft Beta anti-Spyware helped. Previously I had tried cleaning up
with SpyBot and Ad-Aware, but they did not work.
