IE9
My OS is win 7 prof 64 bit and my pc is a Dell Vostro 220. I have installed IE9 the 64 bit version, which I have pinned to the task bar. I load ie thru the Taskbar icon, but when I see in the taskbar's Processes, IE is listed as iexplorer *32. Does this mean that the 64 version is not running or something else. Maybe that explains for IE to be so slow in loading and below 10.00 Mbps whereas my verizon FIOS should be giving me 25.
Hope the gurus can please advise the fix. Thank u.

It has nothing to do with it. Your network connection is faster than most sites and you have to compete for bandwidth with everyone else.. be glad with what you have.
try http://speedtest.net/ and see if your results are comparable with others that have your service

In response to the EE Moderator, sorry about that, I will take note. As I am always online thus my internet speed is important to me.
In response to ve3ofa, I have done that speedtest and the result is less than 5 Mbps. Thus my concern to find out the cause of this and try to find a solution.
I still cannot understand the logic of the 64 bit browser. I had uninstalled the 32 bit, and then installed the 64 bit version, why is it defaulting to the 32 bit when there is no such software on my system?
thank u everyone for your participation.

That being said, no, that shouldn't have any significant impact on your download speed. I don't have a broadband connection that's nearly as fast as FIOS, but my IE9 32-bit pulls down quite a bit faster than 10 MB.
