    Fast internet but slow load rate
    « on: December 09, 2008, 02:42:52 PM »
    Hello!

    Since I'm new to forums, please dint just go ahead and bash me.

    Okay here is the situation:

    A few days ago, i have started to experience a really slow loading in my Mozilla Firefox browser and it was even worse in IE. I have a 1MB/1MB connection (optical) and i never had such problems before. Its loading SO slow that i cant even watch a youtube video and i have to wait like 30 seconds for the forum to load all the images and stuff, not to mention loading a 1024*756 wallpaper or bigger.

    First thing i did was that i cleared all the temporally files (temp folder checked form other accounts as well). - no use
    Then i reinstalled my Mozilla browser - no use
    I have tryed some tricks to speed up the browser speed (some at youtube) - no use
    Then i went to safe mode, and scanned computer with: Spybot S&D, ClamWin, Avira AntiVir Personal and Sophos (which i am paying for). No results of viruses except for some tracking cookies (with Spybot). - no use

    I am really running out of ideas and I'd really appreciate if anyone could help me.

    There is one suspicious thingy on my Internet ussage tracker:


    *Note: This has ben shooted while i was doing nothing on the internet (closed everything that uses connection to the internet).

    Might help the info, that i don't have any problems with uploading and that i am not using any P2P software.
    I am also using the last version of mozilla and Service pack 3 for Windows XP (original).

    Thanks for your replies!

      For starters, you have THREE antiviruses running: Sophos, Avira, ClamWin, which is a total NO-NO.
      Uninstall TWO of them, and we'll go from there.

        The thingy is that Avira and ClamWin are not treated like other (more serious) like NOD or Sophos, wich cant be run at the same time. For those two (clamwin and avira), there is no restrictions and you can use them at any time along with others. But if you say so, there is no probs to remove them. I had only Sophos b4 and when this problem started, i searched around abit and i got those two (Spybot insnt an antivirus).

        Just a note, running multiple antivirus programs at the same time causes problems, false positives and can create a real mess.

          You're correct in case of ClamWin. It doesn't run in real-time, but it's not true with Avira.
          You may keep ClamWin, but you have to uninstall either Avira, or Sophos.

            Please, post some computer info:
            - processor type, amount of RAM (hold Windows key, hit Pause/Break key)
            - hard drive size/free space (open "My Computer", right click on hard drive letter, click "Properties")

              Good info, that means two anti virus can run together, Broni, can they?

              They can, but it's not recommended because, as I said before, it can cause problems.

                Not in real time.
                ClamWin doesn't give you real time protection. You have to start the scan manually.
