High memory usage by IE 11

Yes, I’ve tried resetting IE, I’ve actually done it several times. I only have one homepage set (CNN.com) and I’ve already tried removing it. I’m not quite sure when it started but it’s within the last couple of weeks.

See if the Internet Explorer troubleshooter from the Microsoft easy fix changes the performance:

Might I suggest Process Explorer as part of Sysinternals. It might give you more insight.

I use that utility all the time. Here’s a screen capture showing what Internet Explorer is doing:

I tried the link provided and downloaded the file for diagnosing Internet Explorer performance. However it won’t run and it says that another file that’s required is missing.

So no real information from Process Explorer.

Can I ask what security checks you've run? Have any installed themselves into IE?

In a previous post you said you disabled addins, have you removed them?

As far as security goes I have Norton Security installed on the machine and I have run Malwarebytes when I discovered the problem. Neither 1 of them or picking up any issues.
