needs more RAM for one thing. Second try what I said.

I doubt more RAM alone would significantly improve things for you...

1193094 2011-04-11 00:29:00 More RAM will improve the over all speed a bit, but I cant see it having a large effect on the internet.

I've put Opera on PC's around the same spec's and it works fine.

One thing that WILL have had a performance hit - a while back MS brought out some security updates for XP - these caused lower spec XP computers to slow down noticeably. But not the page loading speeds of Browsers.

Try disabling Avast - see if the pages load any faster.
