Slow browsing

Hi,
What protocols are you using? Is it just purely
TCP/IP or with others like NetBEUI, IPX, etc. NetBEUI
could be noisy and generate a lot of packets. Also, have
you checked for viruses or worms in the computers? Some
of the worms like Blaster, Sven can send out lots of data
packets that could clog up a switch or hub. This would
make the network very slow and cause the issue that you
have. Anyone else with suggestions??
