Slow internet, possible virus?

I have had Vista since it went on sale and have never had any problems using
the internet before. But, a few days ago- seemingly out of the blue as there
had been no software or hardware changes to my setup- the internet on my
Vista desktop crept to a crawl. I use the Microsoft firewall and Avast. My
computer has a 4.1 rating and has had no problems related to the internet
before.

My XP laptop is fine on my wireless router and there has been no apparent
change in internet speed. It doesn't seem like it's a problem with my ISP or
route
