There's something on my computer making the internet speed a whole lot slower. And when it tries to go to an address, it says going to ads234.com/adview.aspx?requesturl=address I wanted to go to. Someone help, it's really annoying

If you're using Internet Explorer...
In Interenet Explorer, go to "Tools / Internet Options / Programs / Manage Web Add Ons..."
Post the names and publishers of all the add-ons and I'll tell you which ones to disable.
Also, running any spware removal programs may also help.
If anyone else has suggestions, post them... I'm not guaranteeing this will work... but I think it will. I had a problem similar to this... all the images would look distorted and stuff. So I just disabled a bad plug-in called "safer networking" and that fixed everything.

I don't see "Manage Web Add Ons".
Are you sure it's under Programs?

You probably are using an older version of Internet Explorer. There should be another button like it.

Actually, ST is a Microsoft product so leave that one. The others that I mentioned can be disabled.
