Internet explorer hanging

I've just moved my computer out of the backbedroom for some decorating and
have enabled my wireless network card (MSI 802.11g Wireless-G PCI Adapter)
for use downstairs. However the internet explorer keeps hanging for 5 to 10
seconds everytime I try to do something major, like open a new tab, or
sometimes when I click on a link. The network card also keeps reconnecting,
the worse I've seen every 30seconds. Is the hanging due to the network card
not staying connected or is there something wrong with my machine? Internet
explorer doesn't always hang when the card reseeks the connection.

Hi
Could be that the signal is not strong enough to work well at the new
location.
If the Wireless card is stuck between the case and the wall using an
external Antenna that is set above the system might help.
Otherwise, Extending Distance - http://www.ezlan.net/Distance.html

Thanks for that - I've plugged the ethernet cable into the computer to see if
internet explorer stops hanging and it doesn't! When I open a tab it doesn't
hang for as long as it did when it is wireless. Now I'm worrying if it is a
virus. My anti-virus software reports I have three files with
"Exploit.Iframe.Vulnerability" which for some reason it can't get remove.
However so far it does seem to be just when I open a new tab. But I can't
remember it doing that before.

No, it's just gotten worse! Every time I am clicking on a link now it hangs,
and it is really annoying! Is it worth uninstalling ie and reinstalling it?

Thanks for your help
