Internet game systems

remember awhile back when I was trying to figure out why my computer was slowing down at night or late afternoon?

well, it still does it and i can't for the life of me find what's causing it.

Today it just came to me that my son has been home all day and my computer has been slow and aggravating all day.

he has some kind of game he plays online now I'm wondering if that is taking up bandwidth that slows me down.

Will those games do that?
I'm just trying to think of anything I can because it's a pain.

if it will do it, is there a fix other than him just not playing online?

Online games will defiantly slow your internet down for other computers.

ok that's not it,
it's back to AOhell

it's something called woal at times it uses 50-70% resources. this causes the pages to stop while loading, sometimes as long as 3-4 minuets so I have time to look at system resources and waol.exe is the only thing using these resources
