Anti Phishing tool was much advertised as a spotlight feature of new Internet Explorer 7 browser. It is fine, but they said nothing about problems it can cause. I do not know about other users, but I experience some extreme computer slowdowns during surfing. My friend said that this is because anti phishing filter. Is that true?

Unfortunately, it is a truth. Microsoft confirmed that anti phishing filter can slow down a computer while it analyzes web page. This occurs when web page have many frames. Microsoft is going to release Internet Explorer 7 update very soon that will address this problem. Until this update there is no help.
