As far as i know, more than half of win7 users have this problem - IE and tabs loads slowly, but web pages loads almost great...

Why don't you use another program for web?

__________

Tools -> Manage addons.
Disable addons that you don't need and takes most of IE startup time

I've tried Chrome. It loads web pages slowly better take FF or Opera
