There could be many reasons why your Internet is slow, in general your broadband Internet connection is usually shared between a group of residents in the same area (using the same service of course). Because of this, the speed of your Internet will vary. I would suggest contacting your service provider, or switching to another service and comparing.

Hi Unknown,

You may have spyware. AntiSpyware watches for malicious cookies, spy ware and other malicious things put on your computer by websites that want to spy on you or use your system.

You should have Windows Defender. It is free from Microsoft and watches your system prevents programs from taking over your home page etc.

Go here to read about and get it - http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security...

Two other free programs you should get & run about once a week are Spybot and Adaware. They also are free and you can get them both here - http://www.download.com/

Between those three you are doing a pretty good job of protecting your system and it very likely will show a significant speed increase.

norm.

Sometimes ISP's have slow weeks, and normal weeks. Call their troubleshooting hotline and see if they are having problems. If they aren't, try running anti-spyware or anti-virus software on your computer and see if you're infected, removing any anyfection can drastically speed up a PC. Here are some I highly recommend.

Ad-Aware SE Personal
Avast! Anti-Virus Home Edition
