LINDA - a STRONG caveat on CHROME and FireFox also.

Both of these use an SQL lite to maintain the list of 'visited sites' and other crap. That DB grows HUMONGOUS - in a hurry.

So, Chrome at the very start will be fast and efficient - but will deteriorate (rapidly) over time.

CLEAR THE CACHE, BROWSING HISTORY, and DOWNLOAD HISTORY - frequently (depending - I do it several times a day) - from "the beginning of time" (Tools - Clear Browsing History - opens new tab ... 'Under the Hood' )

Do that - and it will STAY efficient. The SQL lite SUCKS the big one - and the DB can NOT be cleaned by any 'free' utilities on the net (no surprise there - sql databases are a bitch ) - at least none that I could find a couple of months ago.

Hardly anybody even RECOGNIZES this huge problem - I see little to no discussion of it on the net.

It has made a tremendous difference for me in keeping BOTH Chrome and Firefox somewhat efficient.

Giving the Chrome browser a try. It's greased lightening compared to IE. What the heck's wrong with Microsoft . . .
