My internet used to be really fast like it is supposed to be, but out of no where it has really slowed down. I know its JUST my internet because my computer is not slow at all. I have no viruses according to my Virus removal (PC Tools AntiVirus), I cleared my cookies, used ccleaner to free up space (50gig free)deleted limewire, lowered my start up programs, called my company for help and all they said was clear my cookies. Im using Firefox and this has happened many times before but has been fixed by doing all the things i said above, but now it just wont help much. I also think it has low connection because sometimes it will just disconnect then reconnect. PLEASE I really need help, this is my last option i dont no what to do anymore.

Slow internet happens for various reasons. You might have poor hardware connecting your machine to the wall. Maybe your modem-router is not configured correctly. is it slow while surfing the internet, or when running progrmas? either way, you can make it go faster. If your internet is slow, Check your hard drive space, if your computer is full of crap it will run sluggish. I only mention this because your a might have a crap load of stuff downloaded. Try to get rid of Programs, Games and or Movies you have that you rarely or never use. I don't think it's a virus because they usually render windows inoperable, but it doesn't hurt to run a scan. Make sure your only have one virus scanner installed on your computer. If you have more than one they will fight for superiority, which will slow your computer down or end up screwing it up "blue screens = BOSD". Your last step is to clean your windows registry, it probably needs cleaned up, download CCleaner for free or since you know how to use torrents get yourself a copy of AVG PC Tuneup..Do all & check speed here once scanmyspeed.com
