Had to run a full slate of diagnostics and Spybot Search and Destroy and all that - computer started behaving strangely earlier and I was afraid I had got a virus.
Apparently it was my ISP acting weird; for a period of time the connection speed was down to 11 Mbps, which is the lowest I've ever seen it. I don't know, maybe my modem has started drinking heavily in anticipation of the long weekend?

Maybe it's just me, but 11 mbps doesn't strike me as all that horribly low. I pay for 12.5 service, and usually get slightly above; the last test I ran came in at 17 or so. And my modem is old (seven years) and, in the judgment of several techs, complete and utter garbage; how it hasn't fragged itself to death by now, they'll never know.
