Whether you are using your computer for work or talking to your friends, it feels like time is about to stop when you have to wait for the browser and files to open. There are many reasons why your laptop or PC might be running extremely slow. Some are easy to fix, while others require a local computer repairspecialist to investigate. Before you give up or lose your temper, check for the below…

Is your browser taking forever to load? Are downloads happening at a snail pace on your system?

Though a slow browser can be quite bothersome, it can be fixed with a few minor browser modifications. Here mytechgurus.com suggests how to overcome slow browser issue:

Is your internet connection to blame? Check with your provider and upgrade to a faster modem. An optimal modem speed would be 56.6 kb

If multiple users share a connection it can bring down the speed. Protect your connection with a password, so others in your area do not tap into your connection.

Try exchanging your telephone modem for ISDN, DSL or satellite. These can help to increase your modem speed.

Resizing your internet cache can also boost internet speed. Look for Tools under Internet Options. Under the General tab, you’ll find Browsing History and then Settings. Look for the Disk Space Storage option here – change this to 50 kb or less to improve your internet speed.
