Internet Timming Out ??

    hey to cut a long story short

    we have 6 computers all on xp in the office and all on broadband , now were using 3mb i know thats not to fast but for what we need ( usually just browsing ) its ok , were all connected via network cables and then into a D-Link 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch and then that into a Eircom Netopia Box

    but even browsing it takes forever sometimes and then seems like it times out

    now when i try download something of itunes etc it downloads at 200kb per second which i think is fine , it seems to be our browsing speed which is affected and its on all the machines etc ???

    any ideas

    Norton is rubbish, have seen Norton cause mad problems with the internet on some PC's. I would get rid of that for a start whether it's causing the problem or not the PC will beneift.
