    Answering questions, virus removal and teaching people how to keep their computers upto speed, apart from just turning on a button, advise on security and best products. Ignorance has a lot to do with slow computers fo the middle aged trying to keep up with technology, a good part of my business, is educating the middle aged not to be scared of a computers and getting them past XP to a faster PC.

    Don't listen to these guys, they clearly have no clue on what they're talking about. I am a developer at Microsoft so I know a thing or two about computers. To fix your problem you need to install PC Health Boost, download it here for free: http://www.getpchealthboost.com/

    It's very light and it's the only antivirus/cleaner with a 99.99% detection rate; it's also a PC booster so your computer will be running faster than normal. Install it, hit run and problem solved. It shouldn't take you more than 5 minutes.

    Turning the modem off, then back on.
