    The update said that it does not apply to my PC.

    I turned off the antiphishing filter. Will that cause me to be phished? What are the odds of it? Will my PC be in danger?

    Thank you very much Mr Reverend.

    My IE 7 is still slow. I restarted my PC.

    It wasn't slow before.

    Advice? Anyone?

    Thank you anyway Mr Reverend.

    You are not alone Veronica. My browsers were so slow that I was getting server resets and time out notices if not, blank web pages or pages missing scripts. Since I removed my router, only one website is slow. I'm not sure what is going on. My ISP is comcast.

    I'm not sure what you mean by slow. Slow starting, slow loading pages, slow connections. Since removing my router my speeds increased a lot:

    Last Result:
    Download Speed: 16210 kbps (2026.3 KB/sec transfer rate)
    Upload Speed: 360 kbps (45 KB/sec transfer rate)

    Before:
