Slow internet connection

Hi

I have a 4MB Internet connection and my anti-virus is AVG 7.5. My computer works as normal, however when I connect to the Internet using Mozilla Firefox I have to wait a lot longer than normal for pages to be loaded compared to a few weeks ago. I compare it to a dial-up connection it's that bad. I've scanned my computer using AVG but didn't find anything, I also used the online virus scanner from Trend-Micro but still didn't find a thing. In addition I have used Ad-Aware SE Personal edition but to no avail.

This is my Hijackthis log:
