    hi, i wonder is it possible that after several speed tests my download speed became from average 330 kb/sec to 220 kb/sec
    i am not sure it is a reason, but this is only thing i did
    with my speed.
    can anybody help me with this thing

    do you have anything running while you do the test like a p2p program or anything, when you do the test close everything and then try. Or check for spyware and adware than can affect the speed a lot

    nah
    i mean it became slow not in speed tests
    when i download something it slower than should be.
    in speed tests it the same
    but when i download something from sites where my speed was usually 330-350kb/sec it is 220-250kb/sec

    wel the only thing i could think of right now is that you have spyware or addware just do a check again to make sure

    Do a system restore to before the date this occured.

    also the difference in your speed, isnt really that much, it might be the server that is uploading to you, try doing a dsl benchmark test.

    try a system restore from within safe mode. if you still cant restore then id say that some spyware has buggered up your windows installation.

    what speed broadband do you actually have (i.e 2.2 meg)
