ie7 slow fix question?
winxp/sp3/DSL/ie7
Tried many great tips that did not solve my problem. I can now bring my
ie7 up to speed if I open Task Manager...(end task for)...searchindexer.exe &
svchost.exe (network service). They almost immeditaley re-start...cpu usage
drop to about 2%, but now ie7 works without problem until I re-boot.
Guessing I have some corrupt DLL's? Do I need this searchindexer? Hoping
some nerd with ie7 problem checks this out, and lets us all know.
Hope this may help others

Well, what file indexing product did you install or enable (Google
Desktop, Windows Search, CoperNic, indexing service included with
Windows)?
If you do a file search on "searchindexer.exe", in what folder do you
find it? When you right-click on the file, Properties, Version tab,
who made it and what's its program name?
Have you yet tried loading IE7 in its no add-ons mode to ensure you
didn't install a helper app that is slowing IE7?

Good to know that I can now make ie7 work without problem. I have again
enabled all add-on, and still no problems.
Bus that I do not know why this works, and must be done everytime I re-start
my computer.

Maybe a Beta MS Office product?
Maybe Windows Desktop Search?
Maybe MSN Search Toolbar(with WDS)

Re: ie7 slow fix question?
WinXP/sp3/dsl/ie7
Hi Donald Anadell
This may have came with my MS Office???
I have now disabled the searchindexer, and no ill effects yet...lol. Still
have problem with svchost.exe (network service). cpu usage 100%.
I notice there are 2, and one is used for somthing like "Remote Computer
Call" the other is unknow so far. Once I end the process for the 2nd
svchost.exe (network service) everything works great!!!
Cpu usage goes back to normal...ie7 works without problem...no more
operation incomplete messages. The entire system just runs better.
Still happy that I can make it work, but do wish I understood why.
P.S. I did try svchost repir for sp2, but will not work with sp3?
Suggestions welcome

Such as? How much real memory do you have?
How much virtual memory is committed?

That is a poor way to control Windows Search (assuming that's what
you're looking at.) And as you note something makes it restart anyway.
BTW I think you should check to see what it is that you are also killing
if you are terminating an svchost.exe... (E.g. in a cmd window enter:
tasklist /svc /fi "Imagename eq svchost.exe"
and read the services listed with the PID you are about to stop.
Or do something equivalent with Process Explorer.)
What I do to make WS an on-demand function is disable its service.
Then when I need to use it I enable it and start it. I actually do this via the
cmd window's command line but you could do equivalent things using
the Control Panel's Services applet (for example.)
Otherwise this is what I use to start WS:
sc config wsearch start= demand
net start wsearch
and this stops it (so it won't automatically restart):
sc config wsearch start= disabled
net stop wsearch

More likely you don't have enough real memory to qualify for using Vista.
(I think offering WS on XP is a ploy to make us think we have underpowered
machines so we're more likely to upgrade them and thus switch to Vista. <w>)
or you have too many other apps running which is resulting in "thrashing"
(a technical term regarding memory management and misuse of
its page file(s) in particular) in which case you should either control
what you have running or install more memory.

WS is handy for searching Mail and News messages.
Otherwise I prefer Search Companion (which WS makes
much harder to access.) E.g. press Win-F and scroll to
the link at the bottom of the WS window instead of the
more conventional, more convenient methods of starting
Search Companion.
