[Closed] Slow & Fast Internet

Over id say the past 3 or 4 months my computer has become slower on the internet. It is so slow now, that it is like not having internet at all because it never loads the pages. The strange thing is that the only thing that is moving slow are the web browsers. I have downloaded many different browsers like Safari, Opera, and Firefox hoping that they would speed everything up only to find they were just as slow as Internet Explorer. Everything else though that uses internet, like AIM for example, run at great speeds, and all the programs that do not use internet also run nicely so im puzzled and any help is very much appreciated
