About 2 weeks ago, I noticed that connecting to web pages was very slow. I previously have had blazing speed when connected to the internet. I thought it might be an IE6 problem, so I started using Netscape 7.1. Now, even Netscape is giving me a little trouble, in the past day or two. My computer still connects fast, and says I'm connected at 100.00 mbps. Uploading and downloading files seems to be the same as it always was, but browsing the net has become slow and tedious. Does anyone have any suggestions as to why this might be?
