IE7 Phishing filter working?

The Phishing filter does not appear to be working in Vista IE7.

In Vista, I get the message: Phishing Filter cannot check this website
because the Microsoft online service is temporarily unavailable.

If I switch to XP, on which I am also using IE7, the phishing check works
OK, so the Microsoft service is working.

Then I go back to Vista and get the same unavailable message as before.

Can anybody help?

TIA for any answers.

Thanks for your suggestion, however the problem is not slow loading of web
pages.
