For some reason this week, my connection has been slowed down from an average of 5.1kbps (I'm on 56k) to a range of 2.5 to 3.5kbps. And now, whenever I start up the computer, the modem is trying to automatically connect. Do any of you know the cause of this problem and how to solve it?

Have you tried running some Adware/Spyware/Virus scans? Sounds to me like some program is trying to get net access when the computer loads.

I used Spyboy S&D, Ad-Aware SE Personal and AVG, all updated and it found nothing.

Did you boot into Safe Mode before running them?

Yea, I did it in both normal and safe mode.
