Exclamation [SOLVED] Internet Browser VERY SLOW (all of them)

I use Opera as an Internet browser. lately I been experienced very slow browsing, too slow almost none of the pages can be open. I am using Windows XP SP2, 1.25G ram. I thought it was opera, but then I use IE and even Opera and they all are very very slow I get frustrated . I can receive mail with my normal speed and even share files or use the messenger without any speed problems its only in the Internet browser. Sometimes I have to reset my computer to have my normal speed in the Internet browser, sometimes, that even doesn't work. AVG 8.0 and doesnt detect anything.

Re: Internet Browser VERY SLOW (all of them)

Try doing a general clean of your system's temp files using CCleaner:
http://www.ccleaner.com/

Then run Chkdsk, followed by a disk defrag.

Could also be spyware etc causing slowdowns for your browser(s)..
Try following the steps on this page to remove them..

Re: Internet Browser VERY SLOW (all of them)

AVG is an antivirus program only and will not detect Spyware/adware.
I recommend you do a full system scan with SpybotSD and Lavasoft Adaware 2007.

Have you tried CCleaner yet?
