Slow internet access
      #181200 - Fri Apr 22 2005 11:10 AM

I recently had alot of Spyware on my PC (Derbiz) which was succesfully removed with the advise from Web Users.

My computer (XP Home edition) is running a lot better and faster now but not as fast as it was. I have broadband (Wanadoo 1.1mbps) and expect that most websites would immediately appear on screen. However this is not the case, each website takes sometime to access.

I have Norton Anti virus 2005 and the latest Webrooter 3.5 version installed. I have also defraged my PC but it still appears very slow when online.

Many Thanks for your help.

Dave Burgess

First thing to ask is have you deleted your temp internet files?
also worth downloading http://www.ccleaner.com it will delete all temp files, cookies etc. (please note most users have had problems with the issues section of the ccleaner, so unless you know what you are doing try not to use this part)
More advice here good luck.
[read this here] if you suffer from insomnia. This works believe me.

What a lot of people don't do when they defrag their comp is to do a disk cleanup as well...you would be surprised how much crap accumulates in here.

To get to the disk cleanup, click on Start/Accessories/system tools/disk cleanup.
It will ask you if you are sure you want to do it....just click "yes"...don't worry Davey, this will not delete anything important!!
