I have a 1G P3 currently with 256mb of PC133 SDram. I have two memory slots available which can take 512mb each. Obviously this will improve the response of other software etc but will it also improve my broadband (NTL 2mb (clocked at 1.75)).

My school set the BIOS to read the c drive only so no cds and or floppies can be used to wipe the drives and so on... and since they password locked the BIOS i cant really get in that way to change it.. so if i unhooked the battery, started back up when it was reset, and then set it to read the cd rom drive, would it be wrong of me to do this? I forgot to mention that we are using the computers with student locks on them for ITS and we need to get rid of it but the school hasnt approved of us doing it yet and we are running out of time in the unit....

I have newsleecher for downloading from usenet, my ISP is BT (I think they use giganews servers). I was able to download at speeds of 550 KB/S, but in the last day it has dropped to 180 KB/S. I did install emule plus and utorrent, could this have made any effect on the speed, or maybe have installed a bit of spyware which would throttle the speed?
This all applies to my laptop running wirelessly through a BT home hub.
My PC, connected through BT home hub through ethernet cable has always only been able to download at 180 KB/s, but also has some p2p software installed (limewire, utorrent, emule plus).

I have tried restoring my laptop to before emule & utorrent, but has made no difference.

If anyone can offer any advice it would be appreciated.

It is worth noting that downloading from the internet has not slowed down.

It is also worth noting that the speed has slowed down, even when the p2p applications are not active.

This is a last resort before I format them both.

NEVER EVER GIVE those numbers on the back of your credit card to anyone.! if they phone you
1.even if THEY give YOU!! your card number
2.even if THEY give YOU your name
3.or any other details..
4.even if they say you have been charged by someone, using your card numbers.

****IT's the back numbers THEY WANT!!
they will say''can you just confirm for me the numbers on the back of your c-card!..''on the strip where your signature is...secuirty numbers!

Tell Police, a.s.a.p.....o.k. I do hope this has been of help to people.
