No such thing as a noob question here my man, everyone learns sometime. If you are wanting to put a picture here off of your hardrive just click the "additional options" text right below the reply box. It will open an area where you can attach the image. If you want to add one from the net just put the link to the image in between the and the or however it goes. Hope that made since. If you need some more detailed instructions just holler.

Assuming you are working with a clean computer, if not sure read here.

Would not hurt to read anyway.

Then when you are sure you are running clean, then pick out a cable-nut file OR use the TCP Optimizer to tweak your internet connection speeds. Read here.
