It might be the problem cause the online game might take lot of available bandwidth.\n\nYou can try turnning off all game application. Reset your modem by turning off and on and try to see if there is improvement

Slow computer and internet?  When it starts to play push the pause button and wait for the red bar to go across. That will stop the skipping, about the slowness upgrade to better internet

This is such a pain \ni don't know where you are from , but i experienced that yesterday ( here in UK) late evening ,\n\n it was so slow, i gave up and shut down , in the end .\n\n May be a fault in the cable system  \n Or Gremlins tinkering with our reception.\n\nMine  seems OK so far  today', thank goodness !!\n\n not sure what the cause is ,\n but it is so frustrating ,when that happens.\n\n Hope you will be back to *normal * very soon \n\n>^,,^<

It could well be that the downloads are causing the computer to slow down.\nThis could be that the downloads are using most of the resorces on the computer...or that the downloads have viruses or spyware/adware infecting them,\n\nRun a full virus and spyware check and see if it makes things run faster.

Maybe it's not your internet.  It could possibly be your pc.  IS your pc new or old?  Does it have enough memory perhaps?  These are probably other issues to look into...

Ur internet speed is very slow. Use dsl connection instead of dial up. Such problems will never end on dial up connection.

Your internet browser is most likely slow because you probably have a numerous amount of spy/adware on your computer. This spyware has been known to slow internet browsing up 10 times slower than what it should be. I would reccomend that you get a spyware removal program. If you already have one, I would reccomend using it once daily. If you dont have one already dont be alarmed thinking that you have to go buy this program. There are many free ones out there. Adaware SE is a very good and highly recomended one.

it depends on what kind of ISP you have. I have ITLnet, and it runs really slow also. If you have DSL or wireless or satellite then you need to check with ur ISP to see what's going on. If you have any other ISP then those three that i gave you, then your web pages are going to run slow.

torrents would have been my best answer. it doesnt slow me down\n\nNOTE: if you are using a router maybe you should do port forwarding so its not so slow

its not about ur DSL. even the yahoo websites has their own server machines ... so if there is alot of load on the yahoo or many users are accessing yahoo then it will respond slow.
