Slow Internet?

My connection has been running slow for the last couple weeks. I thought it might have something to do with work they're doing on the lines around here. Then it hit me- I haven't done this in a while-

Spybot. Instant fix.

The site flies once again. I also took a moment to go in and delete my cookies and temp files. It's like a new computer.

Thought maybe the North Koreans had heard about you and targeted you along with the Whitehouse and Pentagon.....

did you run all of them, Search and Destroy, RunAlyzer, FileAlyzer and RegAlyzer?
 
S&D. I looked at the others. I'd have tried them had I had any clue what they did.

Care to share?
 
i had spy bot years back and it was great, then went to ad aware and it worked fine. after seeing this I tried it again, ran ad aware first, then spy bot. spy bot picked up registry changes that ad aware didnt. certain cookies and traffic cookies will alter registry from default and slow you down tremendously as it makes the comp take the long way around. I removed ad aware this morning.
 
To keep your PC happy and fast, run Ad-Aware and Spy-Bot S&D every week.

I also, run Crap Cleaner, now called ccleaner. It gets rid of all the junk cluttering up your drive.

And defrag your drive every month or so.
