Depends what you've got running on your machine Trev, I'd try CC cleaner from piriform http://www.piriform.com/ download it and run it everyday.

Failing the above try some new memory, a 2gig memory card will cost about £12.00 and will take 2 minutes to fit.

It might be problems with your connection, can't you upgrade to Infinity?

In your case though Mr T, it's probably down to the speed of finger movement of the ageing user.

Mr T: The suggestion to run CCleaner is a good one, although running the Cleaner once a month should be sufficient, if you have an active Anti-virus program in place.

No need to spend any money there either. AVG Free is as good as they get. http://www.avg.com/gb-en/homepage.

I would also consider adding Malwarebytes to your armoury. Again Free, but you need to run the scans yourself. I run about once a month. http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_pro

Once you have done all that, a Defrag is the order of the day. If you haven't run one for quite a while, expect it to take all night. Windows has one, but it can be bettered, again for free. http://www.piriform.com/defraggler

Mr T - Some questions:

What Anti Virus are you running and is it the latest, or an older, version of the program? Is it's Database up-to-date and do you run it regularly?

What other Security Software do you have loaded onto the PC?

How full is your Hard Drive? 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, 7/8th.

Is the PC able to do most of the other Internet things?

Malwarebytes Trev, try the trial it should do enough to get you out of limp mode.

And stay out of those Granny porn sites ffs.
