i lol'd at last, although all of which could help. sometimes explorer runs slow and for some reason firefox works better, but i tend to use explorer ^^
there are 3 main browsers:
internet explorer,
firefox,
lost the name of it but google it and you'll get 1 or 2 more
I use Opera and will not change that....
Ok... only thing I did different on my computer was yesterday, when I restarted comp, a window appeared to update msn.... so I clicked on yes and the update started..
I'm on dail-up so it is really slow... but I was going to do stable chores for 2-3 hours, so didn't mind..
When I came back, the update was only 35% done, so cancelled it n order to do it when I have more afk time (when I go to work...)
This is the most accurate time for when my huge lag started...
Can this be related?
Now I lag so bad I can't log on ls.
Yesterday, in cata, although I usually can keep up with the actions equal to people on high speed, I was 2/3 on the way..
I tried to do some wells this morning and was lagging too much, it was just a gamble..
For instance, I would click on a drop in arena, and I could count to 8 seconds before the item disappear to go n my inventory...
Usually the delay is 1-2 seconds... Now it was 8 seconds...
I can't go on Gmail and even jsp is laggy for me...
I also went on the guild forum after my stable chores...
So my guess s it's is because of the guild forum or the msn update that I cancelled...
Ok, so now what do I do..
I'm not yet at the point of cussing at my computer or wanting to break it or throw it out the door (windows are new so throwing it out the window is NOT an option...)
Help me someone!!!

Hello Tapsa!!!
Great runs yesterday

But I was lagging so bad.....
-------------------------------
OMG I THINK I GOT IT!!!I rechecked the only little box where the connection goes from my computer to the phone line....
I have 4 wires, but since I only have one line, only 2 wires are used...
The unused wires were probably touching the active ones, so I twisted them in a way they won't interfere...
Now I lag less and I could connect to ls, tested my mage in arena and had no lag!!!!!
God I love myself!!!!!!
And I fixed it myself, without any manly help!!!!
That means a lot when you're a single mom....
Some women in the guild will know what mean....
