Internet is becoming quite normal these days, we can say
same thing for virus too. Internet is the big source of Viruses so if you are
using internet better you be careful on certain things, otherwise your system

Is Internet Safe?
So better be careful on using Internet especially from
downloading and surfing unknown things. They can surely hurt you and your
computer.
If you are using Internet and if it is giving slow speed in
compare of your normal internet speed then yes it is possible that your
computer is already affected by virus and because of that your internet is
giving slow speed. Viruses can really slowdown our Internet speed and can give
other troubles too.
What to do to get rid of it?
Well, you can use some good antivirus to scan your computer
and remove some of antivirus. But true thing is that not all antivirus are that
good or 100% safe. So better thing is to keep back-up your data and format your
computer fully. Or keep back-up of your data in another drive and format the
drive which is carrying the operating system. This will solve your problem for
sure and you will found all your things normal again like before. So better be
safe in using internet.
Let me tell you another thing, before you format your
computer better you ask/call to your Internet service provider and check if the
problem is not from their side.. Ha ha.. I mean in that case you will format
your computer for nothing. Checkout below discussion related to this thing
which I have created in Mylot.
