Internet Explorer IE is slow on 1 machine - any advice?
we had been plodding along with a T1 for internet access amongst 10 users and it was very slow.
Got 75 down / 35 up FIOS!!
Checked from an apple desktop and it was getting almost that. Tried the boss's windows 7 pro / internet explorer 11 and got 10 / 10 or so after several tests. Troubleshooted cables, switch ports, reset internet explorer settings, deleted temp files, removed BHOs, toolbarss, etc. and no improvement
Installed chrome on that machine and now getting near the 75 / 35. So it seems to be an IE issue - not the machine or anything else about that machine.
A couple others have the exact same computer, bought at the same time as the boss'. They are getting close to 75 / 35 in IE.
Any thoughts on how to get IE better on the boss' machine?
thanks!

Try disabling Firewall/AV and see if the speeds increase.

Thanks. I'll try that. but would you think that would slow IE, but not Chrome? and so dramatically?
Possibly, what AV/Firewall are you using? Maybe out of date and not configured to work with IE11 properly.
same AV (Microsoft security essentials) on all the machines. all up to date.
