Yesterday my computer was slow. At one time i unplugged the internet cable to plug it into another computer and after 10 seconds when i checked the computer it was very very fast. Then i plugged the internet cable again and it became really slow. Why is that?
 
Who knows.. may be your PC has been infected with malware and your PC is part of a botnet..

Would help if you gave us a bit more to go on.. Have you checked task manager to see whats using resources on your PC when you are.. and when your not connected to internet?
Do some basic diagnostics and post with more/better info.

Cheers
