How to Increase Your Computer Speed Fast
I'm sure you've come across tons of articles and even
suggestions from some of your friends on how to get your
computer to work faster. Its really not that hard to increase
your internet speed. I'm going to make it real simple for you
and you don't need to be a computer geek to make this work. The
first thing you need to remember is to never, and I mean
absolutely never download programs especially free software
without reading the fine print. Most free computer software will
bombard your computer with spyware which will eventually bring
your internet speed to a screeching halt! If your computer is
already infected with spyware you can download the leading
spyware remover called ad-aware which will scan your computer
and remove spyware and tracking cookies from your computer.
Another way of making your computer and internet connection
faster is by clicking on start, then run and typing in msconfig.
Go to start tab and remove any program except your antivirus
software and any other program which you must have start when
windows starts. This tip will increase your computer start up
time dramatically!
Step number 3, and I do this almost on a daily basis is to clean
up your internet cache. Go to your control panel which you can
access from your start button and click on internet options. Go
to temporary internet files and clear your history. I would
recommend that you also set internet history to a maximum of 2
days. Next step is to delete your temporary internet files
including offline content. Last step is to delete cookies. Be
careful though because deleting your cookies will also delete
useful information from your computer. You can read a how to on
cookies here www.howstuffworks.com/cookie.htm.
These steps are the basics you can take which will speed up your
internet connection immediately. I would also recommend doing a
virus check on your computer on a weekly basis. If you don't
have antivirus software, get it! You'll be happy you did. Just
one virus can wreak havoc on your computer! Make sure you test
your internet speed whether its broadband or dial-up, before and
after you take these simple steps so you can compare if these
steps you've taken have worked. Taking these basic steps will
make you a happy surfer and will restore your faith in the World
wide web!
