IS 2012 + Windows XP SP3 slow d/l speeds...

I have both Windows 7 (SP1) and Windows XP (SP3) installed on my PC. Windows 7 with Internet Security 2012 is working perfectly, but on Windows XP download and upload speeds are 1/20 what they should be. Even if I disable the firewall and everything, there's no change in speed. When uninstalled, it goes back to normal and I can download with full speed again.

I had Avast + Sunbelt firewall previously installed, and they worked like a charm.

 

I have installed new drivers for NIC and tried to run TPC Optimizer, but the problem persists.

  • I have the same problem.

    I have Linux installed on laptop and  download speed is 46.57 Mbps.

    When I work with Windows xp SP3, download speed decreases to 8 Mbps. That's 40 Mbps difference !!

    I tried to disable antivirus and deepguard and firewall too, but nothing changed

     

    Please help

    disable web traffic scanning and reboot before you test to get the drivers unloaded propperly

  • disabling web traffic scanning didn't solve the problem

    Go to add and remove programs, select to uninstall F-secure launch pad and then uninstalled marked features. Select to uninstall Online safty.

     

    This is the component that have the parentalcontroll and so on.

     

    Does it work better?

     

    If you want to install it again you can rightclick the F-secure systray icon and select Show my subscriptions and in this windows select installation status in the list to the left. And here select install.

    Has anyone tried totally uninstalling it and see if the download speed improves? 

     

    I'm thinking that this is that route that I will go to prove my theory.

    Its ok just to uninstall from controllpanel and then install whit a newly downloaded installation package.

    Or wait for the uppdate to come as an automatic uppdate that schould come soon.
