You could try to upgrade to Internet Explorer 8, which is the last version that will work with XP, as I understand it. ----- Original Message ----- From: Sherri To: accesscomp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, February 27, 2013 6:37 AM Subject: [accesscomp] computer download and upload speed very slow I am using Explorer 7 with windows XP on both my laptop and desktop computers. I have noticed that my download and upload speeds from the net are very slow. I had A T & T come out here and they did exchange the modem. It didn't help the speed situation. I know it is my computers, because my son's laptop is running fine. I have run CCleaner to clean up any registry errors, etc. What else can I do to speed up my computer? Thank you.
