System Slow Down On Internet

[sprill]

After several minutes on the Internet my system slows to a crawl or hangs completely. I do not have any other jobs running. I have plenty of disk (7gb of 11gb) in my primary partition and 64 mb. of memory. I do not have a virus.

Even if I end my Internet connection, my applications run extrememly slow after I have been on the Internet. The only thing that helps is a re-boot.

I use a Cyrix 133/166 Pentium chip with a Best V.90 modem on Windows 98.

It appears to possibly be some type of memory leak but I dont knot how to determine this.

Any recommendation is appreciated.

What type of modem do you have? Have you checked the device manager for any conflicting devices?

Its a Best Data ISA V.90 modem. There are no device conflicts.

do you use the built in dial up software that came with win9x, or does your ISP provide a custom one?

It seems your browser is the problem. As for the memory thingy goto the bottom site to dl a std ver to check your mem usage.
