Hello,

I just started to get very slow speeds (several minutes) when using
IE6, FF2.0, and Filezilla FTP. So my Web access is really slow but
email and OE6 Newsreader seems OK.

I ran Adaware, SpyBot, and Super Antispyware plus AVG with no problems
showing.

Does anyone have an idea what I might do for checking a Web slow down
but not an Internet in general slowdown?

Thanks,

Bob

Hi Bob

This might be totally irrelevant, but I caught an Item on BBC news yesterday
complaining that British Telecom (BT) have a deliberate policy of slowing
down data transmission for their customers whenever they, BT, deem it
appropriate!

I think the item mentioned that many other ISP's do likewise!

Just a thought!

Check Superantispyware in task manager and make sure it's not hogging
resources.  I've found I have to end the program every few days and restart
it.  The problem is documented in the SAS forums.
