Windows Usenet Topics on Windows 98 General

.... ..m.. ....

I have been observing, for more than a week now, my dial-up Internet
connection to work more reponsively, more effectively, and more quickly in
Linux Red Hat 7.1 than does under Windows 98 SE. Not only is the
browsing slow, but access to mail servers in general, and NNTP servers
in particular has been agitatingly slow on Windows 98. However, Internet
experience under Linux is completely different from that under Windows.

My Windows' system is clean, and SpyBot, Ad-Aware, and AVG attest to that
fact. ZA 3.0 is active in the back-ground, but I have experienced the exact
same slow-downs without ZA functioning. There is, and I say this with
absolute surety, nothing else besides ZA, AVG, and PGPtray running in the
TaskBar. I'm not sure I see what's flushing, if at all, my Internet
resources in Windows.

Is there anything I might be over-looking?
