So i've just spoken to a very helpful person at customer services, one of the things he looked at was "netstat -a" in the command prompt. Apparently when I have a web browser open I have too many open connections, which indicates the presence of Spyware. I'm surprised because I thought my Anti-virus software came with Spyware!

Anyway, I'm surprised that this would take up nearly 90% of my broadband speed! Can any one confirm or deny this as a possibility?
