MS outlook 2007 delay seeing keystrokes on M2010

When I use MS outlook 2007 and type on my M2010 when I type there is a delay from when the letters show up on the screen (as opposed to when I type in other documents or online like in this message where I see the works/letters right away)
 
There is also a huge delay between clicking on an action and it happening. Does anyone know why this is? it makes outlook almost unuseable and this is a program I use  A LOT.
 
HELP.
 
Thanks

    Here is the solution to your problems.  First, open control panel/add-remove programs.  Remove the cyberlink program titled outlookaddinsetup.  It makes the office outlook mail available to Dell Media Direct.  It is a resource hog.  Then, y ou need to open outlook as an administrator (by right clicking on the exe file in the Office 12 folder).  Then, go to tools/trust center/addins.  then click on "go..." at the bottom.  I would uncheck outlookaddins.  That solved all of my problems! 
     
    To get to the outlook.exe file follow this chain...
     
    Start>Computer>OS>Program Files>Microsoft Office>Office12>outlook.exe
     - right click on the file, then select 'Open as Administrator'
     
    Hope this helps!!
     
    My system:
    Dell M2010
    4GB, 200 GB HD
    Vista Ultimate

    I had the same problem on my new 1505.  I'm using office 2007 pro.  I disabled the Dell Direct Media addon for outlook and it helped some, but still it was not fast enough and the keystrokes were still delayed some.
     
    I then uninstalled McAfslow "McAfee Security" and it was like turocharging the machine.  Try using flash memory for "Readyboost" and you will really get some speed.
     
    Norton Antivirus doesn't slow the machine down.  I'm using it now.
