l bought a new laptop last week it's a packard bell intel pentium duel core with 80GB hard drive and 1024 memory.Anyway l use it on Linsky wireless and when l first used it l got webpages up instantly. l have not downloaded or done anything to it yet but over the last few days it takes ages to get onto a webpage...any. l have a 90 day trial with norton security on the laptop but have not register with this yet and every time l boot up it asks me to register and l just click off it but l cannot see this being the problem can you. So has anyone any ideas why all of a sudden l am getting slow webpages the green bar at the bottom goes slow then stops and sometimes does not move.The wireless icon on the taskbar shows good access with 4 bars showing out of 5.Any help would be great.
Register Norton, update Norton and run a full system scan. Remove/Quarentie whatever it finds. Since you say you have not downloaded anything I am very certain you have numerous virus/spywares on your pc.
Registered with norton security and done a full scan and everything is ok with the computer. So l done a speedtest and it came back as download 100 kb/s and upload 43kb/s somethings wrong here.
try scanning with kaspersky or avg. before scanning update.
if you dont find anything maybe your connection is unstabile. try browsing with firefox. he is a lot faster than internet explorer.
