Internet slow problems

[AMD]

Hi there,

I got problems.
For the past few weeks my comp has been realy slow when loading any internet pages whatsoever.

I have scanned my comp for viruses and stuff but found nothing.
So i just decided to do a Destructive system recovery using my Hp recovery disk and then for a few days after recovery it started going slow again

I also have the problem some with pages saying-
The operation timed out.

I just dont know what to do next,I cannot even update Spybot search & Destroy as it just says-

Error sending request The operation timed out.

i am using Firefox 1.5.0.1.
Thanks

There could be a host of reasons:

1) Spyware or viruses
2) Someone touched your network connection.

Reason 2 is more likely. Did you change any network connection settings at all?

Ive already scanned for Viruses using AVG and found noting,And i dont think anybody has touched my network connection.
As i said i done a system recovery and it was ok until a few days after the recovery it went slow again.

Nope i havent changed a thing.

Perhaps if you could try running and posting the results of "tracert www.yahoo.com" inside a command prompt window when the connection appears to be slow, we could probably nail it down.
