I'm not sure what you are saying here. What do you mean "computer not providing speed being hit
with 760 kb". If you mean that your throughput speed is 760KB\sec on a DSL modem then wow that's fast. I have DSL and a 100Mbps connection and only get 174KB\sec throughput(storage) speeds. That works out to just over 10MB a minute. There are many types of DSL. I have DSL basic. I'm only supposed to get 150Kb\sec according to my internet provider who is 150miles+ away from me. I have optimized things in the registry though so I get the 174KB\sec. Please be a bit more specific about what you want or are trying to do. {:~)
