I read about this tip on internet at INFOWORLD. This tips is about a bug in Windows OS (was
originally present in Windows 2000 and I do see it in Windows XP as well) that causes Internet
explorer to search for Scheduled Tasks whenever your launch the Internet explorer as a user. Microsoft
has it documented in a knowledgebase article. Anyway trick is to open registry and navigating to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Current
Version\Explorer\RemoteComputer\NameSpace and then looking for shared tasks ClassId key
{D6277990-4C6A-11CF-8D87-00AA0060F5BF}. Simply delete it and get out of registry. No need to
reboot. Launch Internet Explorer and see the difference. I noticed significant gains on my computer
and I sure bet you will as well.
