Default 2nd monitor lags when browsing

Starting a couple of weeks ago, possibly after a Windows update, I have a problem where the display on the second monitor does not keep up with the laptop's screen - but only when browsing. All local programs, including movies played from DVD, seem to be just fine. But anything in a browser, including IE9 and Google Chrome (whatever version is available for download this afternoon, when I tried it) lags behind by up to 10's of seconds.

I am running an HP Pavilion dv6 laptop using HP's USB port replicator to connect to a Dell M900 CRT as the second monitor. The OS is Windows 7 Home Premium, on Service Pack 1 (in fact, I think I saw a notice about the Service Pack installation at about the same time that the problem began). I downloaded the newest version of Displaylink two hours ago and there was no improvement.

Any ideas?
