Computer is running great (not)

[Metaldragon]

Hey guys, I have a bit of a problem with my computer. More than the computer itself, is the internet. For the past two years, it has been running GREAT. For the past few days, EVERYTHING takes forever to load. The weird thing is, I barely lag in games. But it has taken me up to three minutes to join a game before...I was wondering if anyone knows, what it might be. Thanks-Metal *edit* Brandon, I have tried clearing everything, and I scanned the computer, but nothing negative came up.

Hmm that has happened to me and went away after a while but I dont think it was that bad.
Did you try clearing your cache (History etc..) and try scanning your comp for virus's.

If you have downloaded anything recent that has slowed it down i would suggest clearing it.
Clear Cache ( Recent history etc )
Get a virus scan.
Clear recent files that are Not needed.
Clear away any un-needed downloads or software.
* Note if none of this works looks for signs of hackers*

Thats a sexy post ^.^
Anyways.
Pawngame lags.. Nothing you can do about it :/
Do your pc's work on a wireless network? Maybe your
sister or something is taking up bandwidth on a different pc, ipod etc.?

If you are in firefox

in adress bar type
about:config

In the search, search for "pipe"
You get 4 results.

Change the first one to true.

change the second value to around 100-150, some computers wont load faster at 150, if you slow down go back and change it to like 125, mine goes perfect at 145.

Don't change the third value.(It should be false.)

Change the last value to true.



To change values if you couldn't figure it out, just double click on the value.

Also, www.ccleaner.com
^Removed 7 gigabytes of pure crap from my computer, ran a bit more smoother.
