Hey all, The computer in question is a Dell XPS, it is my brother's computer. The problem that is occuring is a freakishly slow internet. It is only on this computer. On the other computers it is fine. There are 2 laptops connected through a wireless router, and a desktop connected through a crazy system known as 2wire. The XPS is connected directly to the router.
The routers are setup as a bridge, the 2wire one connects to sbc yahoo, and it then goes to a linksys wrt54gs router.
The XPS is hooked up to the linksys router, with an Ethernet cable.
I've tried restarting the routers, it helped a little but not too much, when i search for adware and spyware nothing comes up/
The computer takes close to 10 minutes to load a website, google comes up fast but things like weather.com takes forever.

Any ideas?
 
ugh, It was a stupid mistake, i have this ip blocking program. :rolleyes:
it was blocking incoming https
ugh sometimes i'm so dumb...
anyway... yah. thanks for looking =P
