When a system suddenly seems slower the first thing you want to ask yourself is "what have I recently done?"

Installed any programs?
Installed any hardware?
New drivers?
Crash or incorrect shut down before the slowdown?
Changed bios settings?
Visited any weird IE sites?

Do a control+alt+del once and see whats running in the background and check the cpu utilization for high usage.

Disconnect from the internet and shut down all unnecessary tray software and see if its still slow.

Also are we speaking of IE thats slow or just the computer in general?

System stats?

Jason

Hope this helps
 

I recently downloaded DirectX upgrade. But the system was slow before that.
I installed a new driver for my HP Officejet K80 printer, from the HP website. But I think it was running OK after that.
No new hardware
No weird websites
It appears only to slow down when I run IE

The CPU usage flucuates between 5% and 100%.
The "processes" tab shows about 45 - 50 items running, the largest being CCPROXY.exe SYSTEM at 118,820


Thank you

First off the system being slow in IE means nothing about the entire system being slow. Most likely your internet connection is just sucky right now. Are you Cable or 56K or DSL?

Secondly is there a specific reason you are running symantec network proxy service? (CCPROXY)

I'm on cable
 

I don't know of any .. I don't know what symantec network proxy service does.. so I don't know a specific reason.
Should I be?

I am on cable

Well two things.

First are you serving the internet to anyone else, meaning another machine?

Secondly if you are on cable then welcome to the network my friend, your internet is shared with everyone else on your node and you could be going slower because a few new people signed up on your node and so your bandwidth is split.

If your not serving internet access to another separate machine then theres no reason for you to have CCproxy on your machine. That could be slowing you down, its also eating up massive ammounts of your ram at close to 115 meg. Freeing up this ram will definitely give you a speed increase.

Did you install the symantec CC proxy software? Did you install norton suite or something?

If you dont need the full norton suite I suggest you only install the antivirus and uninstall the rest. Norton is the most intrusive software I know of as your finding out.

1st - I only have this PC so I don't want to be sharing with anyone. I did install Norton Internet Security Professional some time ago.
How do I get rid of the proxy??

and again... thank you for your help

I would suggest uninstalling the entire suite from the add/remove control panel. Then re-install just the antivirus portion of the software. Its all you really need.
