It's possible that the issue you're experiencing with Internet Explorer after installing Java could be related to compatibility or configuration conflicts. Here are a few steps you can try to troubleshoot and fix the slow loading issue: 1. Update Java: Make sure you have the latest version of Java installed. You can visit the official Java website and download the latest version to ensure compatibility with your system. 2. Disable Java in Internet Explorer: Try disabling Java in Internet Explorer to see if the slow loading issue resolves. Here's how you can do it: - Open Internet Explorer. - Go to the Tools menu (gear icon) > Manage add-ons. - Find Java-related add-ons (like Java Plug-In SSV Helper, Java Plug-In 2 SSV Helper) and disable them. - Restart Internet Explorer and check if the issue persists. 3. Clear Temporary Internet Files: Clearing the cache and temporary files in Internet Explorer might help improve loading times. Here's how: - Open Internet Explorer. - Go to the Tools menu > Internet Options. - Under the General tab, click on Delete in the Browsing history section. - Check the Temporary Internet Files option and click Delete. - Restart Internet Explorer and test if the loading speeds have improved. 4. Reset Internet Explorer Settings: Resetting Internet Explorer settings can also help resolve various issues.

Check for Windows Updates: Make sure your Windows 7 system is up to date with all the latest updates. Sometimes, system updates can address performance issues. If the issue persists after trying these steps, it might be helpful to consider using an alternative browser like Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome, which are generally more efficient and secure than older versions of Internet Explorer. Feel free to try these suggestions and see if they help resolve the slow loading issue in Internet Explorer after installing Java.
