I'm a newbie here, so please understand if that looks painfully obvious in some of my questions.I do a lot of surfing on the net.Yahoo Instant messaging,mailing photos and links as well as music downloads,shopping on e-bay and other e-tailers etc... At times my computer seems to really slow down while going from site to site,to yahoo mail and back and forth from the net to my mail. I have a high speed cable(Comcast) connection,anti-spy ware,anti-virus,and firewall protection.I do notice that after I re-start(which takes almost 8 minutes) things do speed up.My computer is a Dell 4500 Dimension 1.8ghz pentium4 w/ 128 RAM.It's about 2 1/2 yrs old OS system is xp .What can I do to speed things up in those areas.Also I do have Kazaa Plus and I've heard from some that it's like a form of spyware in sheeps clothing.If you need any other info please let me know.Sign me,
