If your Internet connection speed is not as fast as it used to be, it may be a problem with your web browser.
Here are a few things you can do to improve the performance of your web browser:
-
Sometimes a web browser will work slower if it has too many temporary files. Please delete the Internet temporary files to help your web browser work better.
-
Installed toolbars also cause a web browser to work slower. A toolbar is a row of icons and buttons on the top of your web browser. The most common used toolbars are: Google toolbar and Yahoo! toolbar. There are also toolbars that get installed to your web browser without your permission, as a result of spyware. It may be better for you to uninstall all the toolbars you are not using. By doing this your web browser will perform faster.
-
Spyware and viruses can also slow down your internet speed. Please check if your computer has a virus or spyware by running a scan with your Internet security software or an anti spyware software.
-
If you are using Windows on your computer, then you may also be using Internet Explorer as your web browser. You can try switching to a different web browser and test if it works faster. You can see our recommended web browser in the Cool Software section.
