Only real way to increase speed is to purchase a better internet connection package !

There are a few things that could be slowing down your internet connection. First of all, if you have a wireless network hooked up, I would go into the router configuration and secure your network either with a WEP key (password required to get wireless access through the router), or by activating a MAC address filter (allows you to designate which computers are allowed to have WiFi access). Neighbors could be getting into your network (accidentally or on purpose) if it is not secured, and their computers could be using up valuable bandwidth.
The other thing to check is that no programs are running in the background and causing unnecessary network traffic. Due to glitches in Windows, often times programs do not close out entirely and continue to run in the background. A reboot of the computer will take care of this most of the time.
If you are on a wireless network, you might consider running a network cable from the router to your computer instead of accessing it wirelessly, since WiFi speeds are typically slower than hard-lined speeds.
If neither of these things help your situation, your connection is probably limited by the internet provider itself. Unfortunately, there is no way around this, and the only option for increasing your speed would be by bumping up to a higher bandwitdth account.

Far as i know are two ways to do that.
1.Crack the ISP router or server and alter your account information.
2.Pay extra money for a large bandwith.

you are most likely infected with adware and tracking cookies which tries to connect to the net before you do. go to pack.google.com and download "spyware doctor" which will remove all infections that sneak in through advertisement. this is a free program, so update it once a week. good luck.

bad spelling can slow your PC down, I'm not kidding.
