I have noticed that ISPs are blocking adware, ppopups and spyware and firewalls are being configured to crack down too. Some of the slowdowns I believe are firewalls closing sockets that need to be open and so fourth. I believe that most of the problem is that were trying to creatively block ads but were also taking performance hits on our internet browsing experience. One of my ISPs actually blocks google! Yiyiyikes! How many google ads are out there again?
