internet connection problem(s)
Hi everyone, I'm actually helping out a friend right now, but the problem seems to be that she has some sort of internet connection problem (my guess). The symptoms are that when you open IE, it loads up very slowly, like takes a minute for google to show up, but then everything will then run fine. All other applications/programs etc run perfectly fine it's only the internet that's like this. She also has problems running AIM/Yahoo Messenger/basically instant messaging programs because it takes a long time to send a message but she can recieve them just fine. (ie. her typed message must be sent first in order for her to click and drag her chat window elsewhere or it'll freeze for a little bit). AIM express seems to work pretty well though. Main problems: slow internet connection speed, instant messaging applications don't work properly. Any help would be greatly appreciated! thanks!
