i have learned recently not to let things like that upset me. because cause it takes my out of my focus on thinking positive. I have to let those little things go. it is what it is. so for the most part, i don't sweat the small stuff

It's a horrible experience indeed, when PC which is designed to quickly process digital data is functioning what it is not supposed to be. Hmm.. I'l guess your PC needs a break too... :) :) and a clean up too - try cleaning your PC, defrag and check your cookies that might be hanging around there for century...

it might not be your home network, it is possible that your isp is having some problem and becuase of that you are not getting your full bandwidth.

Boy do I hate it when mine do that too. It could be you are using too much memory and need to clean it out it could be that you have a couple of viruses in your system. Hope the chocolate helps; you need it.

well,if your machine running slow then run the anti-spy tool to check spyware,adware,mallware file in your site.this file always slow down machine.run scan disk and defragment to fix the hard disk error .slowing down machine speed depends on many factor.one of the causes can be running too many browser/program at a time.if there is not enough free system resources then the machine run slow and takes too much time to open a program.

I can see where you are coming from. My computer has done the same thing many times. I got so tired of it, now it's sitting in the corner of the room, and i got me a newer computer. I just couldn't deal with it being slow anymore. So i am now on my new computer, and it seems to get all the jobs done that i need it to.

My computer always runs slow because I am on dial up. I try to get in a hurry on here and it moves like a turtle most of the time. We cannot get high speed internet service in the area I live in. I run spyware and adaware daily and keep my computer cleaned up every day but something always seems to make it go slow. Then you feel like you are way behind and you will never get caught up on things. It does get very frustrating at times.

Hi, It's really frustrating when that happens isn't it? I like your solution of eating chocolate cake while waiting for it to decide what it's going to do! Some times it's just the shear amount of traffic thats on the internet that makes them slow! Grin and bear it is my best advice (along with eating chocolate cake!)

Check that you have a firewall and anti-virus installed. Also do a complete scan to make sure your computers are clean. I would suggest housecall.trendmicro.com . Do feel free to pm me if you need more help. ;-)
