ADOBE is the absolute worst program that is constantly trying to update
every time you look at the wall,,,,off it goes..
so go into control panel and shut off automatic updates (for now)
then when you have time ......... you can turn it back on
(theres an icon in there if your running win XP)
also, you want to download the free program called
"whats running"
which allows you to terminate processes and applications at will
also showing you every single ip address your connected to
and every program that's running ESPECIALLY in the start menu
which will slow a computer down to a crawl --> LIMIT THOSE

RAVEN - ARE YOU ON DIGITAL CRACK? Sorry bub but you are way off the reservation here
- while there are some elements of possible tangential truths in this post it has bigger exposure to do harm. I'll defer to you for growing things, please defer computer systems to others - purdy please. Not trying to do a geek smackdown but you are beyond your knowledge zone.
DO NOT disable automatic updates unless you PROMISE and FAITHFULLY download and run them manually every few days when available. If you cannot successfully do that then keep auto updates.
ED:
- Bandwidth speed is fine - don't worry about it.
- Keep Auto Updates on
- Make sure you defrag your hard drive twice and then once per month.
- Don't go hunting around looking for what to turn on and turn off.
- Have your computer run Virus scans at least once per week (I do daily at night)
- Run Malwarebytes , updated, full scan. Free for home use.
- You never shutdown and restarted in 10 seconds. Guaranteeeeeed
