I really don't know what's going on... at first it was just Mozilla that was giving me problems now it's BOTH MS Explorer and Mozilla. They're being slow, I click on a new link and it just loads and loads, even when I hit Stop and then enter again and refresh it. Sometimes when I open up a new, blank tab, cut and paste the link, it'll pop right up, and sometimes it just goes into an endless circlue of "connecting". This seems to happen in particular when I try to click links on search engines.
I don't know what the problem is, I just upgraded my memory, so know I've got two Gigs (but I don't think it's a hardware problem.) I've got AVG and Zone Alarm installed. I did a scan with Spybot Search and Destory and it turned up nothing. (Doing a full scan with AVG as we speak.) I did a scan a defrag just a few weeks back, but maybe I'll try that again.
Does anyone have any thoughts what might be screwing things up? Should I just reinstall both browsers and hope for the best?
(I'm on Windows XP, maybe that's the problem...)
Oh, forgot to mention, I'm on a cable modem, and, according to my internet provider, it's running pretty smoothly. We did the whole "reboot the modem" thing yesterday.
