It was running fast, until I installed the internet.
Didn't download anything, and I did a clean install of Vista?
What could be making it run so slow?
Should I upgrade more ram?

It depends on how much ram you already have. If you have less than 2GB of ram then yes! Otherwise I would say make sure you have Antivirus software running!

Vista needs about 1 GB of RAM just to run the OS smoothly; if you're doing other things, that need increases. If you install more RAM (about 2 GB), you should be okay.

Yes, you need more ram. Windows tends to use more and more memory as 'advances' are made. Vista needs more than XP which needs more than Win 2000 which needs more than Win 95 which needs more than Win 3.1 etc, etc. I remember my old commodore 64, which booted up in under 10 seconds. It's just the way things work.

There are three things what makes a pc faster RAM, hard disk and final the processor, vista is demanding much more when possible double or possible more increase RAM also remember how bigger the drive how faster.

It's a new operating system, so it still will have some problems, don't upgrade anything, but u might want to switch to XP untill Vista runs better

Two GB of ram would be nice.

Well, if you "installed the internet," I'm sure that's taking up a bit of space on your hard drive.
