If you are trying to track down why your computer is running so slooowwwly, try using this simple DOS command from Digital Inspiration to uncover a possible problem:

Type cmd in your Windows Run box.

Type "netstat -b 5 > activity.txt" and press enter.

After say 2 minutes, press Ctrl+C.

Type "activity.txt" on the command line


This .txt file will have a record of everything that has made an Internet connection in the last couple of minutes; you can then check your task manager to find out where it is and take care of it.
