I had placed this in the wrong forum:
So here are the problems...
Problem #4:
Now..while the file's downloading, the speed is pretty slow like 18 or 23 kb/s or maybe even slower. (I'm using a DSL wireless DLink, btw) So is there a program or any other ways to improve my speed performance?

Problem #5:
When I browse, the loading is slow (I have to wait 7 to 15 seconds). (but of course it was incomparable to when i had all my start ups loaded) However, when I use my computer A/B (having the same DSL, but with an Ethernet cable), the browser pages runs very smoothly and fast (Loaded in 1,2 or 3 seconds). How can I fix that?

Problem #6:
When i'm downloading a file, the browser is unable to load (the green bar just stuck a quarter of the way and flashes). I can't seem to browse when I download (This is the first time that I experience this). Any fixing/configuration I need to make?

Problem #7:
My notebook gets its internet connection through DLink Router wireless, while my computer A gets its connection through DLink Router Lan Ethernet Cable. However, when my computer B (through DLink Router Lan Ethernet Cable) uses the internet, many times my notebook and the computer A can't go online. Is there something wrong with my DLink Configuration?

Plus another issue arises:
My BitDefender suddenly can't update it's virus definitions; it goes to 14% then quickly dropped to 0% and then show "updating error" I think it has to do with my internet connection even though the internet is working because when i click toshiba registration it gave be an error saying "there appears to be a problem connecting to the internet and downloading new content" So, what's going on?

My notebook has a Genuine Windows Vista Home Basic, Intel Celeron M Processor 530 (whatever that is), and a 802.11b/g wireless-LAN
Modem: Westell Model 1600
DLink Router: DI-524
Internet company?: Verizon

Hope I've post on the right forum...

The right forum is the malware removal one until you get it clean.
