Hi Curly

Are you using Internet Explorer to browse the internet, if you are try deleting your temporary internet files, which maybe clogging up your computer, to do this click on the following at the top of the page.

Tools, then from the drop down menu internet options, the page which opens should be on the general tab and then click on the delete button, in the next window make sure the temporary internet files box is ticked and if it is not to inconvenient tick all the other boxes as well to get rid of all the stored data and give your internet browser a fresh start, press the delete button at the bottom of the window and it may take a while for your computer to delete the files if there are a lot of them, when the deleting process has finished, close your browser and then open it again and see if there is any improvement

Well that’s up to you Curly if you tick all the boxes and then delete everything, that means that you will have to input all your passwords again when you log on to password protected services, for example Wigan Live and then you will be given the option by the site and your browser if you wish to be "remembered" and if you click yes, then you will be logged in automatically when you visit the site again

Curly you could also install ccleaner and run it just before you turn off your pc. It gets rid of all the temp files and cookies that websites put on your pc while you are browsing.

ccleaner
