Solved: Slow connection/page load problems
Hey,

My internet has begun to slow down lately. Page loads and transitions have been taking 10-15 seconds at times when they are usually "instant". I can't figure out why; I haven't really been doing much lately except browsing yahoo and youtube and normal stuff. I haven't installed any big programs or anything that would slow my entire computer down. I've also noticed increased lag in Counter-Strike. My brother has had more unsupervised time lately, when I'm not home, so I don't know where he goes or what he does. Although, I've run virus scans and stuff and they've been relatively clean, but for all I know it could be something more complicated than a little bit of malware. I'm confused as to what might be the problem. Any help would be great. If you need info on my computer or network let me know.

Thanks

Well, I'd certainly be doing some complete virus/malware scans. Try an on-line virus scanner like Trend Housecall and also maybe Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware.
