I upgraded to IE11 when it hit Windows Update, and I wish I hadn't. My biggest complaint is that a lot of the time it is very slow loading pages, for no obvious reason.
My home page is on my local server, and in every previous version of IE, and in Firefox, it loads quite rapidly. There's no reason why it shouldn't.
But maybe three quarters of the time when I start IE11 it takes as much as 30 seconds for the page to show up. It makes me think that IE11 is trying to access something else and timing out before loading normally.
This also happens sometimes when I am already running and access a new page, or when I open a new tab. There's really no obvious reason for it. I'm thinking of backing it out again, but I'm not sure that's possible.
If you haven't already installed IE11, I recommend that you wait.

And I just did capture it.
There was a long pause before IE11 sent out its first request, and then my server responded rapidly. I have no idea what IE11 was doing.

As for the problem, maybe corruption in the anti-phishing database, or IE failing to resolve hostnames correctly? I see a lot of stuff on forums about IE11 slowdowns, and they seem to fall into two major camps: disable/update all add-ons, or reset explorer. Plus some folks who've already tried both and had no luck, and others who successfully reverted to previous versions.

OK, that worked, and I'm back to IE10.

You have to go to Windows Update again after that, to install a big IE10 update.
