It seems as if I've been having trouble in the recent past with computer performance. I have noticed this mostly when watching on-line vieos such as Youtube, Myspace, etc. I used to be able to watch these videos without any issues, but as of late, the videos stop and go several times throughout the video watching process.
I ran several speed connection test, and the results seemed to be fine. Download speeds were roughly 12000-19000kbps, and the Upload speeds were a consistent 1600kbps.
I've attempted to solve the issue myself, but I'm at a loss. Someone suggested I use Hijackthis, and maybe someone here could help me. I've also run my Trend Micro and Ad-Aware, but nothing was found.
Here is my Hijackthis Log
