Indexing Incredibly slow - IE/Explorer takes 15 to 20 minutes toopen!! Alvin Brinson 07-29-2005

Since I installed MSN Desktop Search, it has been indexing for over 24
hours. It has been running since my last reboot for several hours and
has indexed 2600/6828 items. It comes up with apparently random numbers
each time I have to reboot.

Iexplore also takes about 15-20 minutes to even show on the screen after
trying to run - the process is there, but it doesn't actually come up
for that long. Explorer windows also take as long. Thankfully I use
FireFox and xplorer2 or I'd be crippled!

What the heck is wrong here? It's indexing, but it's just INCREDIBLY
slow, and it's killed explorer!

Indexing is a memory and processor hungry process. How fast is your
processor, how much memory and what operating system?
