Have you tried another browser such as Firefox to see if it does the same?
What operating system are you running?
What version of Internet Explorer?
Are you running wireless network or wired?

If your using Windows 7 update to IE9. Its much better than previous IE iterations. Also has hardware accleration.

But if your going to stick with firfox (which IMO is one of the best browsers) download Adblock, and Noscript.

That will keep your browser running snappy and keep you from getting pegged by malicious websites.
