363824 2005-06-14 10:23:00 i have ruled out viruses(only have norton anti virus, could some also tell me another free anti-virus program that is good, that i can download) and spyware, but what are trojans? spaceman8815 (4112)
363825 2005-06-14 10:34:00 how are you measureing the speed?

going by what you have posted i guess you are referring to the logon speed. provided you havn't done anything to the modem, then odds are its just poor lines most likly poor connections due to water damage. ring telecom.
