# format.
reinstall (operating system of choice).

Or get Adaware and run Msconfig to see what programs run on startup that you don't need.

# Around £40pm yes
My connection test - j1media.com/misc/speedtest/

19kbps is poor - i'm on 576kbps Broadband with BT Yahoo! for £30 a month.

# Ooh
Thankye kindly for that link. I've tried other tests and they're all a bit shite.

At least Blueyonder (spit) aren't lying about my 1mbps connection.
