How are you getting online? Dial-up, DSL, what? What is your hardware configuration? Did it work at one time, but stopped? More information, please.

I think there is something wrong with your system, maybe you have some virus in your computer, or there are too many programs running

All things are difficult before they are easy

Greetings,
One thing to try is to "clean up" your system. Run things like Disk Cleanup, scandisk and disk defragmenter. And also make sure you have plenty of Hard drive space and available RAM memory. Hope this helps.
