Delete Temporary Internet Files Regularly
You need to delete the cached data in Internet Explorer regularly. IE stores the visited list of websites in temporary internet files for faster viewing later.

This data is called the cached data in Internet Explorer and this should be deleted regularly for better performance. Get the help desk support to learn how you can do it:
IE7:
Open internet explorer 7.
Click tools and then click delete browsing history.
In delete browsing history, click delete all.
Click to select the Also delete files and settings stored by add-ons check box, and then click OK.
IE8:
Open Internet Explorer 8.
Click Safety, and then click Delete Browsing History.
In Delete Browsing History area, click Delete.
Internet Explorer has security settings that blocks unwanted websites. But if the security is configured to be too restrictive then it can block a lot of desired sites also. Hence there should always be default security settings and this is how we do it:
Open Internet Explorer.
Click Tools, and then click Internet Options.
Click the Security tab.
Click Reset all zones to default level and then click OK.
Internet Explorer add-ons such as ActiveX controls and browser toolbars are used by some websites to provide an enhanced browsing experience. An error may occur if an add-on is damaged or if an add-on conflicts with Internet Explorer. To determine whether the error is caused by an add-on, run Internet Explorer in "No Add-Ons" mode. To do this, follow these steps:
Click Start, and then type Internet Explorer in the Start Search box.
Click Internet Explorer (No Add-Ons). Internet Explorer opens without add-ons, toolbars, or plug-ins.
Generally these are some of the steps needed for good IE performance. However, if these do not work, then the last option is to reset your Internet Explorer.
For IE7 and IE8:
Go to tools then click internet options.
Go to the advanced tab and click on reset.
