Problem i'm having.

there are 2 computers connected to a router connected to a cable modem. my roomates computer when running the speed test at testmy gets between 8000 Kbps and 9000 Kbps. While you see I get only 3000-4000 Kbps. I've downloaded the cablenut program used the Vanburens settings. I"ve tried other optimizers such as TCP optimizer and i've tried system optimizers such as PC pitstop and Tuneup Utilities. I still get these crap speeds.

I just formated my system thinking i had major spyware/trojans that weren't being detected by Hitman pro or a virus not detected by my NOD32 or by Kaspersky (ran both to test).

I don' tknow what to do. I'm sure there is some simple solution that i've overlooked.

oh i've also connected my computer to the modem directly both ethernet and USB(jsut to see) but still get the same speeds. I've tried all the ports on the router. I've tried wireless. Still same speeds.

Please someone help me!!!1

I am sorry help did not come sooner but it is the holidays and the ratio of those needing help to those helping is quite high.  But, I see you did an excellant job on your own and I don't think anyone here could have done a better job. 

Have a Merrry Christmass and a Happy New Year.

Your Friend,
