Like Firefox, Internet Explorer is very slow to load pages. There are various reasons for this: the number of simultaneous connections that IE makes with the server is limited and it also keeps searching for network shares and printers. Here are some registry tweaks to Speed up Internet Explorer and significantly improve your Internet browsing experience.
In the Registry editor, go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Explorer/
RemoteComputer/NameSpace/{D6277990-4C6A-11CF-8D87-00AA0060F5BF} and delete the key named Printers. That ought to do the trick.
For opening up to 16 simultaneous connections with the remote server, and hence pushing your speeds up considerably, you need to modify (or create, if they don’t exist) two values in the registry. Go to
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\InternetSettings and check these two DWORD values:
MaxConnectionPer1_0Server and MaxConnectionsPerServer.

I am sure the “tweaks” mentioned will undoubtedly speed things up, however, another, complementary way of making things more efficient is to to use a registry cleaner on a regular basis. They can be downloaded as freeware, or bought (wih more options available).
Whilst the “tweaks” are undoubtedly useful, basic maintenace of the system registry, using a registry cleaner on a regular basis, will also prevent the irritating slowdown you can get on the internet.
