my computer slows right down, almost to a halt when im downloading more than one file at a time, when i download, say, 2x 200 meg files, the computer will become slow and jerky and the mouse skips when it moves.
Running vista 32 home prem, nod32 av, zone alarm firewall.
I had the same issue some time before with my laptop. It is hard to say. Depend on your configuration, also what browser you are using and what applications you run.
Usually the browsers tend to use a quite a bit of memory, also when downloading hard drives have to be used, but the problem can also be OS related. What I would try is to use or try a different browser and see what happens with that.
