Default Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?

Found my internet speeds on this Dell laptop were woefully slow. Checked various things as recommended by the service provider, found my old laptop was reasonably quick (60/10 down/up on a 150 service), the Dell was 10/10.
Searching the problem soon came up with issues relating to "Smartbyte" installed on Dell PCs.
Uninstalled it and back to 90/10, which is about what I'd expect. Just have to make sure it doesn't re-install (which some folk report it does depending on settings).
