Are you looking for a way to speed up the browsing speed of internet explorer? Since version 7 came out its pretty up to date and fast but theres still a few simple setting modifications you can do to improve the speed a bit, won’t be that much but something is something right? I’d get Firefox if I was you but if your a real IE die hard fan or for some reason can’t use firefox, this article might help you a bit.

1) Click Start.

2) Click Run.

3) Type in inetcpl.cpl then click OK.

4) Internet Explorers Internet Settings should of come up, do the following modifications (if using version 7 just look around, the setting names or locations might have changed a little:

Under General, change Days to Keep History to 0.

Click on the Settings button, and set Amount of Disk Space to Use to 80 MB.

5) Now go to the Advanced tab, and do the following modifications:

Uncheck the following:

» Automatically Check For Internet Explorer Updates
