"There may be several reasons for IE to not to perform well. Generally, heavy websites having rich multimedia content tend to slow down the browser. To improve performance in this case, you can try to resize the cache to say 128MB or something. (Start Internet Explorer, Select Tools -> Internet Options -> General. Under Temporary Internet Files click the Settings button and type the amount of disk space to use.)

But, I would recommend you to use Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome as alternatives to IE."
