You could need to Defrag your computer and do you do virus scans because you might have a virus on your computer

housecall.trendmicro.com (or was it trendmicro.housecall.com?)

Open that up in internet explorer, download the virus definitions and scan. :thumbsup:

Your cable conection is probably too strong, if you have a booster try removeing it. If you don't try adding a dampner. smile.gif

Turn your modem off and then on. It clears everything up. smile.gif

maybe you need to clear your cache from your internet... and all those ehem... anyway since cable uses a shared system you got any mofo neighbors sucking up all the data?

Which spyware prgram are you using? Try following steps here and if you need more help on spyware/virus stuff, post a thread stating how your scans went, your problem, etc.

Although if you don't have time, just Ad-Aware/Spybot/MS Antispyware Beta. Those should get enough so that your internet can run decently and you can blast the rest when you have time. But I find that following all the steps works the best.
