Hi all,
My computer keeps running very slowly - especially on start up - and I keep getting the message ( Internet explorer is not responding due to a long running script )
I sometimes have to restore the session.
How do I find out what this script thing is - and stop it!
I have windows 7 home.
TIA

When was the last time you checked the update settings as it sounds like you have one hanging about and not installing, run the update troubleshooter

[dave c]

thanks freddo, will try that.

Hi Freddo,
Went into windows update and there was an update pending. I cancelled it and it seems to have speeded up computer again - touch wood!
Many thanks.

On an older computer such as this could be a myriad of things. It's quite possible the hard drive is creaking a bit which happens after a few years. You may also need to clear web cache - if in doubt, easiest to have a local PC shop take a look.
