My internet is extremely is extremely slow ...?

[shn_hadley]

This only started out of the blue yesterday, I have used spybot search and destroy and norton anti virus both of which cannot detect any viruses.

Im also getting messages from windows (popping up on the screen) telling me that there are viruses on my pc but when I click the options it takes me to the internet for an anti virus thing I have to buy. The scan is free and supposedly detects lots of viruses but like I said before I have to pay before it will fix them.

Im confused since the internet is still slow and the Norton and Spy Bot haven't picked anything up, if they have they have been deleted.

Everything else on the pc is working at normal speed apart from the net. I have defragmented the hard drive and cookies and the slowness still persists. Its driving me mad!

Can anyone help???

Thanks in advance

Depends- when is it exactly slow? is it while surfing the internet, or when running progrmas? either way, you can make it go faster. If your internet is slow, you should scan your computer for viruses and spyware using suitable programs(for example- avast anti virus or spybot). If you still experience the same problem I would advise you to delete the computer after backing it up, and then installing a new copy of Windows. if your problem is with programs running slowly- I can advise you to download this software, which can extremely help- CCleaner.Do all these and Perform speed here
