Can someone tell me how I could get a clue to tell if this problem is being caused by either AOL having too many dialup users on a line, spyware, malware, IE, microsoft or wrong settings on my part. For the last ten days or so, when I click on a website to visit, it takes so long to load that I get disgusted and x-out. I am using a dialup modem with AOL as my ISP. I have Windows XP Professional w/sp2. Memory is 128MB. After numerous calls to AOL and no fix, I happened to notice what I think is happening. I cleared my AOL browser cache and made note that the maximum cache size was around 5000KB. All I did was access the Google webite and then checked to see how many KB's accumulated in the current browser cache - it was 7340KB. So, something is filling up the browser cache at an alarming rate. I used to have a hijacked IE homepage that read About-blank, but I got rid of that by unchecking Enable third party brower, and this time Google remained as my IE homepage. I wonder if that has something to do with this? I don't know much about computers, could this be settings or what? Maybe one clue is that when I try to access a particular website called turnerclassicmovies, all I get is the background color of the homepage and then my computer freezes. I thought that maybe it is because it is a big site, but I can still get ebay after a few minutes, so I don't know. If someone has the time, I need help, Thanks

Now back to you LABEESH, welcome to geeks to go.
I can't believe that it takes that long to load ebay, shouldn't take that long and you said that you had a hijack browser at one point. Which leads me to think that you have Malware on your computer. Please post a log in the Malware area with a hijack log. It may take you a while do to so however you must take the steps to get aide from a professional at geeks to go.
