@ avj,
Good spot on the detail... I just looked at the "O.K"
I guess a backup & restore to new disk,
assuming it's worth spending on a new disk.?

I have had a couple HDD crashes. Lots of noise and a constantly spinning drive are tell tale signs.

Hello!

An ad blocker, like ABP for Firefox and Chrome, might help speed you up somewhat. You also might make some online speed tests, using speedtest.net or some place like that, at the times when it's slow, to see if your ISP is giving you the speed you're paying for.

In Windows, defragmenting helps, but Disk Cleanup in Windows, and programs like CCleaner, do more - by removing unused temporary files, Windows Update backups, abandoned registry entries, and the like. (When was the last time YOU uninstalled a Windows update?)...

I get slow here sometimes, too. I notify AT&T, they remotely check my line, and the speed comes back.

I'm not a big fan of outsourced customer service, either. I just keep calling back over and over again until I have one on the line who I can halfway understand...
