Does it hurt/slow down my comp to have Earthlink, AOL, and NetZero installed at the same time??

I am paying for AOL dial-up service but it was too slow so i got Earthlink DSL… (when i look at my Network Connection now though i see under LAN/High Speed Internet: Cisco Systems VPN Adapter,Cisco Systems VPN Adapter, under Dial-Up: NetZero, Earthlink, Earthlink123, and under Broadband it lists Earthlink again as an option…? )

So now my internet is way slow…. is having all these programs on my computer the reason my internet is slow? Why do i have so many catagories ?? Which ones should i get rid of ?? I don’t want to be paying for all of these, and i can’t see having so many connections as a good thing (right?)-So could anyone reccomend one over the others ??? :- / I’ve tried calling customer service but they each only reccomend their own product…and i’d like an unbiased opinion.
… the Earthlink Smart Installer always promts me to install its software each time i reboot my computer… is that normal ?? (cuz its really annoying and i don’t know why it asks me to install it all over again !)

Looking for a new ISP…need feedback on the best one for Dial-Up?

I am looking for a new service provider to switch to because of poor service with NetZero. I am torn between People PC and LocalNet. If anyone has used either one, I would like feedback. Thanks.

Looking for the fastest computer speed possible..?

I have netzero(dial-up) that I use. Its cheap but sometimes slow. I don’t mind a few more dollars for better service. Can anyone reccommend someother program. My area is not compatiable with most DSL which I think I would like to have.

what type of internet should i go with?

i am looking to subscribe with a new internet company. right now i have dial up internet and it is supplied by my company. i want a new internet service but i dont want to pay a fortune. i was looking at the netzero high speed internet because it was the cheapest i could find. should i go with netzero or should i just pay the load of money for broadband?

What kind of low cost broadband is available, and where?

I’m sick of dialup, even the $10/month brands like NetZero, because of the low transfer speed.

I’d love to get broadband, but 1) DSL isn’t avaialbe out here in the countryside, 2) neither is cable, and 3) satellite and wireless braodband costs about $600 to $1000 just for the hookup fees (depending on the provider), and about $60 to $80 a month for the service.

Is there anything cheaper? Is there something in the free, to $10 to $25 per month for boradband without having to buy into satellite TV too, or am I just dreaming? If I’m not dreaming, can you supply information?
