IE Hangs on load....For about 10 mins...

Suddenly whenever i try to start IE it loads up the window
but then stops and hangs for about 10 mins, before resuming
normal functionality. This happens for each window i open,
and doesn't have anything to do with my homepage.

This is especially frustrating since programs like mcafee
use IE for their menus, and so they also hang on startup.

I have all windows updates installed and am running XP prof
SP1.

I did a full virus scan and shutdown all non-critical
processes and still no luck.

Help appriciated,
John S
