    I HOPE YOU FIND IT HELPFULL

    STEP1: As you already know the best way to reduce lag is to clear your browsing data, clearing your cookies, cache, history, temporary files, and most of the unwanted items in your browser and in your computer and the truth is it works but sometimes it’s not enough so you can help the reduction by clearing everything in your browser here is how it’s done for Google chrome which most are using

    Now once you have removed all your data including your database your browser will be renewed just like how it was after your downloaded for the first time
    After this comes the tricky bit

    STEP 2: Now we are done with our browsers so let’s move on to the computer
    as some of your know that a part of the data, cookies and other unwanted items is stored in your Drives so best thing to do is to defragment all the drives in your system mostly it’s just two which is C drive and D drive but some might have more so defrag them too o

    Ok now your drives are clean and fresh nice job now here comes the annoying bit and sorry the more steps you go through the more annoying the work is but i assure you that it’s worth it


    STEP3: Now here is a question

    Do you guys have an antivirus program for both your computer and your internet?

    If Yes the great

    If No then please download or buy one

    This is highly recommended

    Why?

    because even though you might not know this but almost every hour you spend on your computer surfing the net you r downloading virus and not 1 or 2 like 50 to 60 depending on the amount of time your spending which currently alot so get both a net protection and antivirus software for both the computer and the internet

    Also make sure that you have both an internet protection and a pc protection

    Why should I get an internet protection? Isn’t it enough just to have a pc protection with firewall and antivirus software running?

    No. The reason is because Pc protection software gives only protection to your drivers which are basically most important since if you lose them and your system crashes then you would have lost valuable data but that’s about all the pc protection does an internet antivirus protection software prevents most of the virus from entering your computer in the first place hence lesser tension

    Why not just get an internet antivirus program and forget about the pc protection?

    The reason is because even though the internet protection prevents most of the virus from entering your pc it can still let in some new malwares which can be very harmful for your computer and a pc with no pc protection is just a sitting duck in a wolves den so get your pc protection it’s not going to cost you as much as a new computer

    How is virus related to our lag problem?

    Viruses cause lag because they use your computer's resources to function. one example are worms (not to be confused with WORM). worms are self replicating programs which exist solely to slow down your PC. they are difficult to detect, and therefore difficult to remove. it’s best to have a antivirus software for both internet and the PC is good

    Here is a small experiment I conducted on the virus related to lag issue
    My best friend also plays this game and he experiences lag issue and here is what I found he doesn't have a antivirus program so I shared mine with him and I ran a scan in his pc and what I found was his pc filled with viruses the program quarantined almost every single program running in his pc and took him a long time to remove all of them since the cleaning systems was so slow hehehe so I also came to believe that virus is related to our lag in a way I don't know about it and if by some chance any of you guys know the how its related then tell me ok
    Got your virus locked up with your antivirus program good job
    Let’s move on to our next annoying job


    STEP 4: Now that we have refreshed our PC from virus the next annoying job is refreshing the entire system which is kind of easy just switch it off and then after 10 mins switch it back on simple as you can get just doing it is kind of boring. Doing this twice makes sure that your pc is really refreshed because sometimes it doesn't fully refresh like mine and even though I recommend refreshing twice but if some are lazy like me then just refresh once

    Ok pc all refreshed good work let’s move on to our last and final annoying work

    STEP 5: Now the last thing to do is to refresh your internet connection like if you’re using broadband connection then just switch off the modem and switch it back on then disconnect your system from your internet connection wires and just reinstall them and that’s all simple easy and very effective also even though some of these tasks might sound pointless they actually help try it as you will know it

    STEP 6 : Another thing you might want to add is GameBooster. Another thing you might want to try is to set the priority for you web browser to high. This will usually increase you speed dramatically. Just be sure that your CPU is not running at 100%. Your RAM should also be checked.


    WARNING: PLEASE DO NOT DO THESE ACTIVITIES FREQUENTLY THE FOLLOWING METHODS ARE NOT MEANT TO BE DONE ONCE OR TWICE A WEEK THESE METHODS SHOULD ONLY BE DONE ONCE IN TWO OR THREE MONTHS

    I HOPE THIS GUIDE WAS HELPFULL TO ALL
    HAVE A GOOD DAY

    Hell with the virus. I dunno whether my drivers are full of worms or not, fact is I can still do fine on other games. So this musn't be the virus, or my computer problem. This must be the game who got the problem x(

    Note: I've tried your guide. Thanks to it all my saves on kongregate games are gone and my surfing is worse than before. Plus it didn't work on me...

    I agree with that, linux/ubuntu are some of the best OS's IMHO. I have never had a virus os worms or spyware/malware on any machine running ubuntu/kubuntu/lubuntu/linux/linux mint or of course OSX, it seems 98% of the people that lag use Windows, kind of a pattern there, huh?

    Great Guide though, I like the screenshots, those are always helpful for people who aren't computer savvy.

    I would even recommend Downloading Ubuntu's ISO and burn to disk and partition half or less your HD and use it for CS, you will notice a difference, Use Chrome browser though, over the years Firefox has turned into Internet Explorer lol...
    Yeah ..... Firefox turned to Internet Explorer T.T ._. Internet Explorer 9 is better

    First off, I'd like to clarify that ubuntu/redhat/other forms of linux distros are not noob friendly yet, some attempt to be, but still require quite a bit of research before you can be fluent in their command-line style configurations. That being said, the only reason Linux distros don't "seem" to get infected with viruses is because of how uncommon they are. For whatever reason the people that make viruses do their thing, they don't want to spend all that time and effort and only effect the 2% of the online population that use Linux, so they conform the virus to affect windows users, as windows and Linux have completely different file structures.

    In short, don't get any version of Linux just because some guy on a forum said it doesn't get viruses, those distros are for people that do their research, just imagine someone that has a windows machine riddled with viruses because they don't know how to take care of it now, reformatting and installing Linux. Information is a dangerous thing if you don't have the want to learn more.

    P.S. - the only way you'd download 50 - 60 viruses an hour surfing the net is if you were downloading porn from untrusted sites

    its lags because the virus is doing some processing, therefore the CPU/Processor (Not the PC itself, but a small chip inside your that processes all the executions <-- for ppl with less knowledge about computers) takes some of its resources to process this virus .. so in the end the CPU processes will slow itself because of overloading of works .. but with the new high-end CPU's like the "Intel Core i7" and the "AMD FX", the lags will be lessen or it will be completely disappear ..

    The best way is just to refresh your browser when you're already experiencing lag. Since its quite laggy on World Boss event, I recommend you to refresh your browser first before enterring at WB event. And no need to wait and whack a mouse and score 5000, this method would only takes 20-40 sec.

    Btw, who's still using a pc with 256mb memory this days? Oh c'mon, that's like the pc of your dad when he was your age. Buy new one for yourself.
