My PC did exactly that when I upgraded from IE6 to IE7 so I went back to IE6, problem solved. If you remove IE7 it will be automatically be replaced by IE6

I think your problem has to do with RAM. Check your system properties to make sure it is recording the 1gig of RAM. Then I would try to find updated drivers for them. Try switching out the RAM with some from your old computer...or a computer that you know works. If it still does it I'd say there's some system conflict with your network card. Try updating the drivers for that. If it still doesn't work try reformatting your computer and start with the bare basics to see if it's some conflict with some software. Also, try doing a virus scan...if you got online without virus software it could be a virus. Hope all goes ok.

My scroller mouse gave up the ghost on me so i am using a standard one to scroll down or up i just left click and hold on side of page it works for me anyway.Much faster than scrolling.

It's probably something to do with the graphics adaptor not being able to refresh quickly enough. This is because, either the drivers for it aren't installed, or its simply not powerful enough for XP's demands on it.

Have you looked at your mouse scroll speed and settings?

Use firefox instead of internet explorer, it's miles better.
