For some reason my browsers (crazy browser AND explorer) run extremely slow. It's not even the program that runs slow, but the websites... everything is lagged (its not a modem issue), for example, if i put the mouse over a link itll take a second or more before the link actually lights, same deal with clicked links, typed text, and so on. scrolling down is also slowed. I scanned for spyware and viruses, reinstalled crazy browser, nothing helps.

you could try reinstalling ur browses,

delete all traces of it and reinstall, that might work.

I had that problem when i installed some scripts to block adware/pop-ups etc. When there was a pop-up, it would lag like crap etc. removed it and it went back to normal.

winxp ;p
