Your PC will slow down, the more shizzle that is installed on it. When I bought this PC about 3 years ago, it booted in about 10 seconds flat. I've never reinstalled it since it was new (I love Windows XP Pro, I was reinstalling 98/ME and even 2K every 3 months!), it now takes about a minute to boot. Short of blatting the hard drive and reinstalling from scratch, I would suggest the following:
As was suggested, remove any spyware/check for viruses (apparently viruses is the correct plural BTW, I always thought it was virii).
I would also run "checkdisk" on the PC's system drive (normally drive c: ), clear out your temporary files/temporary internet files and do a full defrag of the system drive (c: ).
Also check for how much free space is available on c: as your PC will use free space on the system drive (normally, depending on how Windows is setup) as Virtual Memory. Clearing out the temp files should free up quite a bit, anyway.

Hope this helps.

But when you are checking your speed at that site MB-s are going crazy and they are rising up soooooo fast! Probably it's obvious!

Re: How fast is your internet connection?
i went to comcast and switched my old internet modem for a wireless gateway modem. model ARRIS TG852G/CT. i want to see how fast of a wired internet connection this modem is really giving me. i would also like to check how fast of a wireless internet connection this modem is really giving me. how would i check how fast both these connections are? im supposed to be getting 12-15mbps but sometimes it seems like im not getting those kinda speeds. i sure n hell aint getting 12-15mbps for a wireless connection because if i was i wouldnt loose connection while playing cod online. that happens at least once sometimes twice each time i play cod. anyone help? and how would i speed up my wireless connection so its the same speed at my wired connection? if thats even possible
