I think, today our social life is online. I am saying this, because who is not connected to FaceBook? who does not know the website YouTube? Aside from Internet browsing, we use the network to download anything. If a friend recommended us a video, programs, or games, usually we just install it without checking that the product is legit or not. With this behavior, it is logical that more and more people suffer with internet problems.

Additionally, with all the plug-ins installed in our web browser such as Google toolbar, Softonic, YouTube, games, and unknown applications, which involves exposure to virus, not only slow down PC, but it also slow down Internet speed.

Many people believe that when internet is slow, the problem is Internet connection or those website. But this is not a true. IMO, a slow internet can be caused by 3 factors: Dull performance of the PC, older version of the web browser, and the broken wires of cables.

I've seen in many forums such questions as: Why YouTube is slow? FaceBook is slow, etc...? The fact is that the probability of the problem is in one of these website, is very low. The probability that the problem is on your computer, is very high. If your computer is infected due the viruses, then first keep your computer clean.

Problems with plug-ins is another common problem which is related to the Internet. The problems with plug-ins are, each browser uses plug-ins to display videos, music or games. The best known is Adobe Flash player. If YouTube and FaceBook is slow, then the first thing to do see if this plug-in works correctly,

Sometime problems are related to with technical things, like if you are using Internet connection with a shared modem, then the amount of computers that are connected at one time also share the bandwidth so that the more computers are connected at one time slows down the connection speed too.
