The best thing to do is not use IE. It's riddled with security problems and is like having an open door onto your computer.

Try Firefox. There are tons of extensions at http://addons.mozilla.com for just about everything conceivable. I prefer Opera as it's the fastest and most stable browser out there - and has lots of goodies built-in - but overall there aren't nearly as many plugins available.

-Do you believe you own your computer and shouldn't be told what you can run and do? Then say *NO* to Microsoft Vista!
-Since half the questions here involve media problems, here ya go: Only use Verbatim or Taiyo-Yuden discs (get your TYs from Rima.com, not Supermediastore or meritline). Forget the rest, no matter what "brand" they sell under. Always burn at 4x speed regardless of the speed rating of this discs or your drive. If you have burn problems with these then you have to update your drive's firmware. For double-layer discs, only use Verbatim DVD+R DL and burn them at 2.4x speed.

Your saying Opera is faster than Firefox even with the pipeline hacks?

Yup. The pipeline hacks really don't help that much. Opera is like lightning. The earlier (v6.05-v6.06) were even faster but do not support all modern stuff like stylesheets. But modern versions (v 9.10 now, I think) is still fast, faster than anything else out there. Oddly enough, I have less site-compatibility problems with Opera than I do with the more recent versions of Firefox. But I'll take either one over IE no questions asked.

Thank you very much for suggesting Firefox and Opera but I can not use them in my PC as I do not have permission to change explorer in my company ...therefore please suggest me Add On for IE.

I am basically looking for a software which can enhance my IE performance without occupying so much space in hard disk and as far as i know abot Firefox,it is bulky and take lots of time to load a site.

I don't have much knowledge about Opera though.

But I insist you to suggest me IE Add On.
