This is really making a huge question mark above my head. I have brand new computer and somehow I decided to install new Vista Os and my Internet connection suddenly slowed down. I am just wondering cause all the other things are working fine and Vista is the only thing new on my PC, so is it Vista that is causing the trouble?

Hello! I saw many complains on that matter, and I guess Microsoft try to improve the system and go to in some upper lever didn’t worked well somehow. Even though some experts disagree that Vista does that to Internet connection, fact still remains that older Windows system models didn’t have trouble going with the Internet speed’s flow, without lower it down like Vista.. The problem starts ‘cause Vista is providing two versions of Internet protocol (sending the information over the computer network technology standard). If you start using the Vista your DNS(domain name system) traffic is going to double. With all the other DSN users that are sharing with you your connection that could increase speed to the
“going nuts how slow it is” level. Vista is a first version that provides new IP version 6 which provides a billions more IP addresses and allows many more computer devices to link in the same time ( broader range of IP addresses). Previous IPv4 allowed his data pockets 32 bits of address space, while IPv6 went to 128 bits, allowing easiest connectivity across the Internet, and make some other problems about translation addresses and fuss about extra management for solving some application incompatibility problem gone. The flaw with that Vista plan is that OS is not used by many people at this moment, so it is making
two DSN requests, one for each version ( IPv4 and IPv6). Looking For IPv4 address then IPv6 address could slower the connection, and that will most probably happen ‘till the supply for Vista system doesn’t increase to some higher point of being universally used. But then again move that Microsoft made with Vista is in a way crucial and could solve the problem of over-crowded DNS traffic.
Well,can’t blame them for trying to be one step ahead.
